Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan “sees a historic theatrical release” in Bangladesh today. Oh, and, there is no question of keeping calm. After all, it's SRK we are talking about. His charm and charisma rule our hearts. Pathaan has also created history by becoming the first film to hit theatres in Bangladesh since its independence. As per the news agency ANI, films produced by Bollywood were banned in order to protect the local movie industry. Now, pictures and videos of fans grooving to the electrifying beats of Jhoome Jo Pathaan have surfaced online. In the video, which was recorded inside a theatre, a girl is seen dancing as the song plays on the giant screen. The text attached to the tweet, shared by a fan page, read, “#Pathaan ki Party Continues in Bangladesh and even little kids can't stop themselves from grooving to Jhoome Jo Pathaan! #PathaanInBanglandesh”.
