“This meeting is an indication that the film is very much on. If all goes well, then Shah Rukh Khan will begin shooting for Atlee’s next by the end of 2021,” the source added.

Meanwhile, currently, the shooting of Pathan has been put on hold due to the pandemic. It is said that soon the shooting resume. Apart from Shah Rukh Khan, Pathan also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in the lead roles.
