One such controversy has now started surrounding actor Shah Rukh Khan’s much-awaited film, Pathaan, which is set to release in January 2023. While the teaser and the first song of the film has already been released, makers are yet to release the film’s trailer. With that said, a video has started making rounds on the internet where Shah Rukh himself confessed to belonging to the _Pathaan_ lineage from Pakistan as he further adds that he feels happy whenever Pakistan wins. The video is quite old and from an event where the superstar addressed the audience and said, “Main ek baat batana chahta hu. Mere waalid actually Pakistan se hai, Peshawar se. Main bhi Pathaan hu. Lagta nahi hu, tabiyat naasaas deti hai. Lekin main bhi Pathaan hu. Meri height, weight kam hai. This is not to court any controversy, par jab bhi aaplog jeete ho toh aisa lagta hai ki mera waalid ki side jeet gayi. (I want to tell you something. My father is from Peshawar in Pakistan. I am also a Pathaan though I don’t look like one, thanks to my health, less height and weight. This is not to create any controversy but when Pakistan wins, I feel my father’s side won.)” Watch:
