John Abraham recently shared a heartwarming story about his co-star Shah Rukh Khan from their blockbuster film ‘Pathaan’. During an appearance on the TV chat show ‘Aapka Apna Zakir’, Abraham reminisced about the generous gesture from Khan following the film’s massive success last year.
Abraham recounted a moment from the film’s success party, where, despite the celebratory atmosphere, he was feeling exhausted. “After the release of ‘Pathaan’, there was a party to celebrate its success,” Abraham said. “Shah Rukh was in high spirits, saying, ‘Come on, John, let’s celebrate! Our movie is doing great; it had a fantastic opening!’ But I was so tired that I told him, ‘I just need to sleep.’”
