The ‘Pathaan’ craze hit Kolkata hard and Shah Rukh Khan fans in the city pulled out all the stops to celebrate the star’s return to the big screen after four years. SRK fans have gone berserk all over the country, from saluting the actor when he saluted on-screen to sleeping at theatres overnight to catch the first day-first show and dancing inside cinemas. The box office collections of the movie have also gone through the roof at the end of the first day.
Some SRK fans in Kolkata took things a notch higher with their celebration on the streets and a video of it has gone viral. It was shared on Twitter by Zee News journalist Pooja Mehta.
The SRK fans took a jumbo garlanded poster of ‘Pathaan’ and mounted it on a horse carriage. They took out a procession with the poster and a whole pipe band played in accompaniment, the whole thing resembling something like a wedding procession.
