An official announcement will be made at the right time and the team at the moment is in no hurry what-so-ever to announce the film. The concentration is to make a great film, as that would result in the content to make more noise than any announcements. Shah Rukh has loved the script and is damn confident of Pathan being not just an ideal comeback vehicle but also his biggest grosser.`

Well, according to the sources, John Abraham is also getting a whopping amount of Rs. 20 Crore for his role in Pathan.
