Shah Rukh Khan will be returning to the big screen after a gap of three years with YRF’s Pathan and looks like Aditya Chopra is leaving no stone unturned to make it one of the biggest films of YRF and SRK.


There were reports that Salman Khan will be seen in a cameo in the film as Tiger, and now, according to a report in Bollywood Hungama, Hrithik Roshan might also have a cameo in the film. He will portray the character of Kabir that he played in War. It is said that Aditya Chopra is planning a spy universe just like Rohit Shetty’s cop universe.

A source told the entertainment portal, "Not just Salman, with Pathan, Aditya Chopra wants to unveil the entire special agent universe he's trying to create. Siddharth Anand who directed WAR last year has also requested Hrithik Roshan to step in as Kabir for Pathan. If all goes well, we will see not only two but three Bollywood superstars together in Pathan and this will mark the first union in the entire universe. Going ahead, the three actors SRK, Salman, and Hrithik will be seen making appearances in each other's franchises and thereby culminating in a big finale as well. The idea is to create an Avengers set up with spies."

While Hrithik knows about the idea, he is yet to give his nod for the film. The source added, "Siddharth had planned this with Adi and felt this could be the starting point of the big universe they have envisioned. Hrithik is deciding on it and will most likely do it as well."

Pathan also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. The latter plays the antagonist in the film. Dimple Kapadia is also a part of the movie, and reportedly plays the role of a RAW (Research and Analysis Wing) officer in the film.

Union claims ‘brazen retaliation’

Rockstar Games is facing allegations of union busting after reportedly dismissing dozens of staff believed to have been involved in a private workplace-organising chat. According to a Bloomberg report, between 30 and 40 employees across the UK and Canada were let go on 30 October, all linked to a Discord group used to discuss union issues.

The Independent Workers of Great Britain (IWGB) union said some of those affected were members, while others were attempting to organise. In a post on Bluesky, IWGB called the move “the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry”, saying it would fight for the workers to be reinstated.
