Moreover, his Pathaan co-star Deepika Padukone will also unveil the trophy during the finals on December 18 at the Lusail Iconic Stadium, Qatar.
Pathaan is directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra. The film features an ensemble cast of Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. The movie is scheduled to release in India on January 25, 2023.
The film has been touted as King Khan’s biggest comeback in 2023. However, SRK and Padukone landed in hot water for the “tacky” choreography and “skimpy” clothing in the viral song, Besharam Rang.
