Seatbelts are well and truly off for Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan which is now has the Rs 450 crore mark in sight. The film is about to hit its third weekend in theatres around the world and is expected to continue stacking up the crores, especially since it has no real competition in terms of new releases.
