It is now among the highest grossing India movies ever. The craze of 'Pathaan' has reached England also it seems. Former England cricketer Monty Panesar tweeted about the movie recently.
"Pathaan box office collection has already collected Rs 700 crore globally. Can it go past 1000 crore ? @iamsrk @deepikapadukone @TheJohnAbraham #pathaan," he tweeted.
Fans reacted in a varied way to the query.
"Let's be honest. India didn't put up a fight in the semis. It was a completely one-sided affair. Indian bowling looked clueless in front of Buttler and Hales. You are playing the semis and you need to give a solid fight; 168 is not a small score.
"Rohit (Sharma), Dinesh Karthik and R Ashwin are the top names who could say goodbye to T20I cricket. The team management will surely have a meeting with these guys and will ask them about their plans...It's time these players make way for young players," Panesar said.
