Blockbusters are back! Kickstarting 2023’s loaded slate of tentpole films was Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan. The Sidharth Anand directorial which also featured Deepika Padukone and John Abraham opened to packed theatres full of movie-goers who celebrated the release with unabashed whistling and dancing. The next few months bring in a slew of hotly anticipated movies led by some of the biggest stars in the Hindi film industry. For starters, Pathaan isn’t the only Shah Rukh Khan-led title from the year. The star will also appear in Atlee’s Jawan and Rajkumar Hirani’s Dunki. This is also the year of exciting onscreen pairings. Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani reunites Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh after their successful stint in Gully Boy. Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi are all set to share screen space in Merry Christmas and Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor will come together in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar. Moreover, the year has not one but two Kareena Kapoor Khan features - The Devotion of Suspect X and The Crew.
