NEW DELHI: Bollywood 'King' Shah Rukh Khan is all set to make his comeback to Bollywood with Yash Raj Films' spy-thriller 'Pathan'. The first teaser of the film was unveiled by the makers recently. As per latest reports, Shah Rukh is all set to leave for Spain for a long schedule of his film. Actress Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, who are also part of the film cast, will be flying to Spain for the shoot. 

It is to be noted that shooting of the 'Pathan' was delayed last year owing to the arrest of Shah Rukh's son Aryan Khan in a drug case. Later, the shoot got delayed again due to the COVID pandemic.

He then greeted the security guard with folded hands and entered the airport. SRK didn’t stop to pose for the cameras on his way to the entrance of the airport.
