The film was released in January 25.
Shah Rukh Khan’s latest release “Pathaan” has emerged as the highest-grossing film of the year, raking in a worldwide collection of around Rs 1,050 crore. This action-packed entertainer, which also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, is backed by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner.
Following its phenomenal success at the Indian box office, “Pathaan” continues to make waves in the global market. Now, in some exciting news, the film is set to be released in countries where it previously did not receive a proper theatrical release. Following an overwhelming run in Bangladesh, “Pathaan” is now poised for release in Russia and CIS.
The dubbed version of this spectacle is scheduled for a wide release across Russia and CIS, spanning countries such as Belarus, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Armenia, Georgia, Moldova, and Kyrgyzstan. On July 13, “Pathaan” will hit over 3,000 screens, marking the widest release for an Indian film in these regions.
While Indian films have previously achieved remarkable success in these territories, the landscape has changed since the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Hence, the performance of Pathaan in Russia holds significant importance, as it could pave the way for future Bollywood projects to be released there. However, the availability of the film on the internet poses a potential challenge to its prospects. Only time will reveal how it fares in this region.
