Pathaan’s cinematic success is quite special and beyond regular box-office success. Shah Rukh Khan-starrer has evolved into a festival, with people from all over the country treating theaters as sports playgrounds and cheering for his idol star as a demi-god politician.
However, there is still a lot about Pathaan that many of us might not know, despite the fact that viewers are still in awe of the craziness of the movie in theaters and, of course, from the thank-you press conference.

Pathaan not only convinced everyone that “SRK is not finished,” but it also provided an opportunity to actively assert SRK fandom. Simply put, we can say that the craze for Pathaan made SRK fans more visible. And if you think that it’s limited to ordinary people, then no, it’s not! Pathaan’s craze has made several die-hard SRK fans visible within the industry.
One of the most well-known ones is Ayushmann Khurrana, who recently gave a befitting reply to her own fan who tries to troll Pathaan
An Action Hero, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, just premiered on Netflix, over two months after it had its theatrical debut the previous year. The movie not only garners positive reactions for the script but also for Ayushmann’s acting.
Overall, we can say that Ayushmann is also basking in back-to-back successes and is not an ordinary celeb. However, it doesn’t mean that he can’t be an SRK fan. That means even if you are his fan, you will not be spared if you try to mock SRK in any way.
The actor actually did this!

Recently, Shah Rukh’s admirer 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!”

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

However, this is not the first time the actor has expressed his love for SRK. Ayushmann has declared his love for Shah Rukh several 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.
Ayushmann Khurrana is definitely the most famous SRK fan.
