Producers Guild of India pens a heartfelt note to express gratitude for the smooth release of Pathaan!

Unlike the backlash Pathaan had to face before the release, the Shah Rukh Khan starrer is having a smooth and successful run at the box office. The movie is giving record-breaking numbers and despite a few Hindu activists trying to hinder the release on the opening day, Pathaan did not have to face any major setbacks.

Pathaan’s success is one of hope, one that makes us believe that the power of love can triumph over everything. We share this moment of victory with you all. Thank you for making this happen.
