Bollywood star John Abraham on Thursday thanked fans for showering love on the trailer of his highly-anticipated film `Pathaan`, describing the action spy thriller as a “biggie” that is a result of a lot of hard work.
The actor completes 20 years in cinema next week and said the release of the Yash Raj Films project was a special moment for him. Fronted by Shah Rukh Khan, `Pathaan` is slated to be released on January 25 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
“In my years in cinema, this moment, right here… right now, is a special one. It`s amazing that you have showered so much love on the trailer of Pathaan. A lot of hard work has been put into making this one. It`s a biggie,” Abraham, who made his acting debut with 2003`s `Jism`, wrote on his Instagram Stories.
The trailer of the Siddharth Anand directorial was released on Tuesday. The video opens with Abraham-led mercenary outfit Outfit X wreaking havoc and announcing an impending attack on the Indian soil, spelling the end of exile for Khan`s spy Pathaan.
The 50-year-old actor also praised film`s producer Aditya Chopra for giving him “some of my best roles” of his career. He has worked with the banner on both massy and critical hits such as `Dhoom` (2004), `Kabul Express` (2006), and `New York` (2009).
“Adi has always given me some of my best roles & I can`t wait for you what Siddharth Anand has done with me and the film! I want to say so much about Pathaan but let`s all wait for Jan 25th!!” he said.
“Get set for an awesome big screen entertainer!! Thank you once again for the overwhelming response to our trailer,” he added.
`Pathaan` also stars Deepika Padukone, Dimple Kapadia and Ashutosh Rana.
