Anurag Kashyap calls Shah Rukh Khan a 'man with the strongest spine'; here's why

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is all praise for actor Shah Rukh Khan. He referred to King Khan as 'the man with the strongest spine' and appreciated his latest release 'Pathaan'. In a new interview, he said SRK maintained silence despite facing troubles on personal and professional fronts and now his work is making noise.

Speaking with Mid-Day, Anurag said, 'People are coming back to the cinema and people are coming back and dancing on screen. People are euphoric about the movie. There is euphoria and this euphoria is beautiful. This euphoria was missing. This euphoria is also a socio-political euphoria, like making a statement.'

He added, 'The man with the strongest spine, the most resilient and integrity who has kept quiet through everything, has spoken. He has spoken onscreen with his work. It is beautiful. He spoke loudly on screen. I understand what he teaches, Speak with your work, and don't talk unnecessarily. He is who he is and you can see why.'

Shah Rukh Khan's latest release 'Pathaan' is doing wonders at the domestic and as well as international box office. As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, 'Pathaan' has minted ₹429 crores worldwide. It earned ₹265 crores in India and ₹164 crores overseas. The film has received immense love from viewers and as well as critics. The fans of the 'Zero' actor can't contain their excitement.
