Shah Rukh Khan is Embracing His Modern Action Icon Status
: Khan's character, with an enigmatic charm that blurs the boundaries between righteousness and malevolence, fearlessly declares, "No adversary can stand a chance against me." In the adrenaline-fueled preview, alongside Khan, his stellar co-stars Vijay Sethupathi, Nayanthara, and Deepika Padukone, captivate the audience with an abundance of electrifying action sequences.While Shah Rukh Khan has dabbled in action movies and portrayed villainous characters, it was his initial foray into Bollywood with antagonistic roles like the one in Baazigar (1993). However, he has predominantly earned fame for his string of successful romantic movies, including Dil To Pagal Hai (1997), Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... (2001), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006).
However, his career took a major upturn with the release of the highly-anticipated action extravaganza, Pathaan, in 2022. This blockbuster featured the protagonist as a formidable superspy battling a ruthless group of mercenaries. Pathaan's popularity soared, eventually catapulting it to the position of the second highest-grossing Hindi language movie of all time, accumulating a staggering worldwide box office revenue of $128.7 million.
Inspired by the triumph of Pathaan, Khan appears to be embracing it as a pivotal moment in his career with his upcoming project, Jawan. Not only is he embracing his newfound status as an action lead, but he is also captivating the audience by delving into a more intense and mysterious character. If his latest venture garners even a fraction of the success witnessed by Pathaan, it could mark the beginning of a thrilling and action-packed second phase, akin to Liam Neeson's recent spree of action films in the Western cinema.
