Shah Rukh Khan is making his long-awaited comeback to the big screen with Pathaan, and fans have been waiting with bated breath. By the end of this month, Siddharth Anand's film, which also features John Abraham and Deepika Padukone in key parts, will be released. Now, the superstar's movie has surpassed KGF: Chapter 2 starring Yash in advance booking overseas and has already begun breaking records even before the movie's release. 

The Yash starrer reportedly made 144 thousand Euros (about Rs. 1.2 crore) in sales in Germany. Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan-1 (PS-1) was one of the biggest movies to come out last year and earned 155 thousand Euros (about Rs. 1.36 crore) in Germany. According to reports, Germany has seen insane advance sales for the Shah Rukh Khan's film Pathaan, which have reached 150,000 Euros (1.32 crore) as of now. The figures were provided by Aaj Tak, although the movie's release is still 8 days away.

Now, based on the numbers i t's excellent news for fans that Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan has already surpassed KGF: Chapter 2's lifetime box office earnings in Germany. For the uninitiated, Shah Rukh's own movie Dilwale (2016) made about 143 thousand Euros (around Rs 1.25 crore) in its first weekend of release in Germany, which ultimately means that Shah Rukh would significantly surpass his own previous record in Germany. 

Talking about the movie, Siddharth Anand directed Pathaan will be a part of Yash Raj Films' grandiose spy world, which also includes the well-known Tiger franchise starring Salman Khan. According to rumours, the superstar will also make a brief appearance in this action film. On January 25, Pathaan will release all over in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
