Karan Johar shares his review of 'Pathaan'

Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham-starrer ‘Pathaan’, which released on January 25, had left everyone impressed, be it the audience or the critics. The film marks Shah Rukh Khan’s much awaited comeback in a film, which is helmed by Siddharth Anand. Nonetheless, the film delivered to its huge expectations.

More so, the film has brought a ray of hope to Bollywood, which has been suffering at the fate of the Boycott Bollywood culture. Now SRK’s friend Karan Johar has shared his review of the film on Instagram in a long post. Sharing the poster of the film, KJo wrote, "I don’t remember when I last had such a fun time at the movies! This one’s just the biggest blockbuster !!! Mega is the word!"

Karan went gaga over the trio of actors and praised them. "The charm, charisma, superstardom, desirability and sheer brilliance of @iamsrk … the hottest, beautiful and sensationally gorgeous agent you will ever find @deepikapadukone the sexiest and most desirable villain @thejohnabraham." Karan also applauded director Siddharth's directorial chops, " Brilliantly directed and conceptualised by SID ANAND! He knows how to mount a film like very few can." Praising his friend-producer Aditya Chopra, Karan added, "I am so so so proud of my BFF the invisible ADITYA CHOPRA!!! You may never see him! But his vision and brilliance is insurmountable!"

He added that SRK may have returned to the screen after four years, but he certainly knows how to make a successful return. KJo also took a jibe at the Boycott Bollywood culture, and mentioned that no one can stand in the way of Bollywood because it overshadows everything else. "And love you BOLLYWOOD! You may have been slandered and “boycotted” but no one can deny that when you come into your own, no one can stand in your way! PATHAAN MUBARAK to all,” Karan further mentioned.

Finally, he wrapped up his review with a spoiler that the best sequence in the film is when SRK and Salman come together, adding that he even stood up and clapped.
