‘Pathan 2’ is expected to launch by the end of 2024.

Shahrukh Khan’s iconic return to Bollywood with the blockbuster ‘Pathan’ in 2023 sets the stage for an exciting sequel, ‘Pathan 2’. The film promises to continue the thrilling narrative that captivated audiences worldwide, grossing over Rs 1500 crore at the box office. As anticipation builds, updates reveal that Abbas Tyrewala, who wrote the original ‘Paathan’, is now working on the script for the sequel. He confirmed that while the story is complete, dialogue writing is underway, hinting at several surprises for fans.

The sequel will introduce new elements with a different villain and a new director, as Siddharth Anand will not be directing it. Instead, he focused on another highly anticipated project, ‘Tiger Vs Pathan’, featuring both Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan. This strategic shift aims to increase the appeal and depth of the YRF spy universe.

The production team expects to begin shooting Pathan 2 in late 2024, aiming for a possible release in 2025. The film will explore the deeper narratives of the spy genre while retaining the fan-favorite high-octane action sequences. Deepika will reprise her role alongside Padukone Khan, adding to the excitement surrounding the project.

With Yash Raj Films expanding its spy universe, ‘Pathan 2’ is all set to lay the groundwork for future crossovers and character development. With Shah Rukh Khan back in action and a promising storyline ahead, fans are eagerly awaiting further announcements regarding casting and production details.
