Well, SRK’s Pathaan’s flabbergasting success is quite special and beyond regular box-office success. As we all are witnessing how Shah Rukh Khan-starrer is evolving into a festival rather than just a film with people from all over the country celebrating in theaters and stadiums and cheering for King Khan.
However, there are still numerous things that many of us might not know, despite the fact that the audience is still in awe of the craziness of the movie in theaters and, of course, from the thank-you press conference.
Pathaan made it very clear that “SRK is not finished,” and it also provided an opportunity to actively assert SRK fandom. In simple words it can be said that, that the fever of Pathaan made SRK fans more visible. Moreover, Pathaan’s craze has made some die-hard SRK fans visible within film industry as well.
One of the most popular ones is Andhadhun fame Ayushmann Khurrana, who recently gave a befitting reply to her own fan who attempted to troll Pathaan
An Action Hero, featuring Ayushmann Khurrana, just premiered on Netflix, over two months after it had its theatrical debut the previous year. The movie not only received positive reactions for the script but also for Ayushmann’s mind blowing acting.
Well, as of now, Ayushmann is also basking in back-to-back successes and is not an ordinary celeb but it doesn’t mean that he can’t be Shah Rukh Khan’s fan. So even if you are Ayushmann’s fan, you will not be spared if you try to mock SRK in any way.
The actor actually proved it recently!
Recently, Shah Rukh’s admirer Ayushmann acknowledged her fandom but voiced his unhappiness with her remarks against Pathaan. One of his fans took to Twitter to review his recent movie, The Action Man. She wrote,
“Screw Pathan, watch Action Hero on Netflix! Story, dialogues, background music, the subtle middle finger shown to Indian news channels and their crass reporting, @ayushmannk has KILLED it! But my fav was the guy mimicking Arnab.”

In response to the tweet, Ayushmann modestly said,
“Thanks for loving An Action Hero. Could’ve avoided the first line though I’m an SRKian!”
Thanks for loving An Action Hero. 😎
Could’ve avoided the first line though 😇 I’m an SRKian!— Ayushmann Khurrana (@ayushmannk) February 3, 2023
His fan again replied to him, saying,
“Same! I love SRK. but sometimes I don’t like the story as much as I love the star”
Same! I ❤️ SRK. but sometimes I don’t like the story as much as I love the star 🤷♀️

This is not the first time the actor has expressed his love for SRK. Ayushmann has showed his love for Shah Rukh multiple times. Prior to the premiere of An Action Hero last year, he uploaded a photo of himself posing in front of Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat residence in Mumbai. Ayushmann was seen in the photo staring at Mannat via the sunroof of his car while passersby took pictures.
