New Delhi: Most awaited movie of the year, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham starrer 'Pathaan' has finally hit the big screens and shows are going houseful. The trailer of Sidharth Anand’s directorial promised an action-packed VFX extravaganza and well, the movie seems to deliver.

As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the Shah Rukh Khan starrer surpassed movies including Yash’s 'KGF 2', and Hrithik Roshan’s 'War' in the advance booking race.
