A second comment in the Twitter session was from a fan who posted a collage of Shah Rukh Khan shirtless on the sets of Pathaan and joked that he was lying about being 57. ‘Please mat karo yaar (please don’t),’ tweeted back SRK – there’s that shyness. ‘Theek hain main hi maan jata hoon I am 30 years old (OK, I admit I’m 30). There I have now told you the truth,’ SRK added, quipping with typically SRK wit, ‘and that’s why even my next film is called Jawan.’ For those who don’t know, Shah Rukh Khan is being directed by Atlee in Jawan, co-starring Nayanthara.

As for being cold while filming the body shots, Deepika Padukone revealed even before Pathaan released that the song Besharam Rang, set in Spain, was filmed in uncomfortable weather conditions. In a behind-the-scenes video released by producers Yash Raj Films, Besharam Rang choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant also said that it was a cold, windy day on set – until Shah Rukh Khan entered, bringing with him his personal sunshine.
