This in essence is, according to me, the route of the blockbuster success of the film Pathaan. Its plot revolves around Pathaan (Khan), an exiled RAW agent, who an abandoned orphan, is adopted by an Afghan family after Pathaan rescues 30 children attending a madrasa in an Afghan village. Star Power: All three films are star-studded with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone being common and the third villain being different. Pathaan Madness: Several cinemas are now reporting damage to the screens because of the frenzy caused by Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Pathaan, which released to blockbuster response on January 25. Shrayana Bhattacharya the author of the book – Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh Khan – is a World Bank economist and a fervent fan of Shah Rukh Khan.
