The finest person to make Shah Rukh Khan's Twitter account entertaining is him. Renuka Shahane and Ashutosh Rana went to see Pathaan together on Saturday. In Pathaan, Ashutosh plays a significant role.

Renuka captioned the photo, "Finally going to watch #Pathaan Mausam bilkul sahi hai kursi ki peti baandh li hai with Col Luthra ji."

SRK noticed the post shortly after she shared it and responded to it with a unique tweet. Renuka received a reply from the superstar, who acknowledged that she was his "first heroine." Together, they appeared in the 1989 TV show Circus.

"Col Luthraji ko bataya aapne ki aap meri pehli heroine hain!! Or should we keep it a Top Secret otherwise he may fire me from the agency" SRK joked.

Renuka replied to SRK by writing, "Hahaha unsey koi baat chhupti kahaan hai? Aaphi ne unhe antaryaami kahaa hai aur chaahey jo ho jaaye, woh aapko fire nahi kar saktey kyunki jo kaam aap kartey hain woah koi aur nahi kar saktaa."

Shah Rukh plays a RAW agent in Pathaan, and Ashutosh portrays Colonel Luthra, joint secretary of RAW.

Rana tweeted in response to the superstar, saying, "समय के साथ लोगों की age बढ़ती है आपकी edge बढ़ रही है। चिंता तो लूथरा को है की वो अगले मिशन में रहेंगे की नहीं ? क्योंकि आख़िरी सीन में आपने लूथरा से कहलवा लिया तलवार भी पठान की और रूल्स भी पठान के... Superb electrifying performance by you @iamsrk ji..congratulations."

During a #AskSRK session last month, SRK gave Ashutosh Rana high accolades.

"He is a Gyaani (intellectual) and Antaryaami (one who knows from within), apart from being a very, very fine actor," said SRK in response to a netizen's question about him.

Renuka wrote back, "You are unfailingly kind, generous, and truthful." She added smileys and a hand-together emoji to her message.

Pathaan is the first Hindi film in India to gross more than Rs 400 crore.

Pathaan, directed by Siddharth Anand, also features Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in key parts. Salman Khan's protracted cameo as Tiger improves the movie in addition to the "Seeti Maar" lines and the intense action scenes.

It is SRK's comeback after Zero and the fourth instalment in the YRF Spy Universe.
