Ahead of the release of the film, he got candid as he shared about how in his 32 years long journey in the film industry he has only dreamt of being an action hero. In a recently released video by the producers of Pathaan, he reveals, "I came to the film industry 32 years ago to be an action hero but I missed the boat because they made me a romantic hero instead. I've only wanted to be an action hero. I mean I love DDLJ and I love Rahul and Raj and all these good sweet boys but I always thought I was an action hero, so for me, it is my dream come true.”

He also shares more about his titular role of Pathaan. He says, "Pathaan is an easy guy, doing a lot of tough things and I think he's naughty, he's tough but doesn't wear it on his sleeve. He's trusting. He's honest and I think he very single-mindedly thinks of India as his mother.”

Pathaan is slated to hit the screens on January 25, 2023.
