<p>Fans couldn't keep calm as the makers of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer 'Pathaan' dropped a motion poster of the film on Saturday.

However, the latest motion poster has caught netizens' attention for a different reason.</p>

<p>Some eagle-eyed netizens have found something odd in the new motion poster. Comparing the poster of 'Pathaan' to Idris Elba's 'Beast', many are pointing out the stark resemblance between the two.</p>

<p>While King Khan is seen wielding a shotgun in the poster with his face partially visible and his back towards the lens, Elba is seen holding a knife in the picture but in the same pose.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As the discussion reached the micro-blogging site, a Twitterati said that the two posters do look similar at the first look&nbsp;but if you see them closely, it has many differences as well.

Netizens find uncanny resemblance between Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan' and Idris Elba's 'Beast'

<p>Shah Rukh Khan fans, rejoice! The actor finally unveiled the first teaser of his upcoming film 'Pathan' on Tuesday on social media. Although the teaser only shows Khan's&nbsp;silhouette briefly and features his co-actors John Abraham and Deepika Padukone prominently, the teaser is enough to excite fans of the superstar who have been waiting eagerly for the actor's new film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Khan was last seen in 'Zero' which was released in December 2018. The film had a dismal performance at the box office and was panned by critics. Since then, SRK has not appeared in any film. He has produced several films as well as web series but hasn't acted in any film so far.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
'Pathan' reunites Deepika and Shah Rukh Khan after Farah Khan's 'Happy New Year' which was released in 2016. Deepika had made her film debut opposite SRK in 'Om Shanti Om' in 2008. 'Pathan' also features John Abraham in a prominent role.</p>

<p>From the teaser, it appears 'Pathan' is an espionage thriller. The teaser opens with John and Deepika talking of a man who doesn't belong to any caste or religion and is only known by his country- India. The teaser then focuses on SRK's silhouette while the actor says how the man got his name and how fans have to wait a bit more to meet Pathan.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Directed by Siddharth Anand, the film will be Yash Raj Films' 50th film and is only going to release in theatres on 25 January 2023.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Guess, we will have to wait a little longer to watch King Khan on the big screen again.&nbsp;</p>

Deepika had made her film debut opposite SRK in 'Om Shanti Om' in 2008. 'Pathan' also features John Abraham in a prominent role. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shah Rukh Khan (@iamsrk) × From the teaser, it appears 'Pathan' is an espionage thriller. The teaser opens with John and Deepika talking of a man who doesn't belong to any caste or religion and is only known by his country- India. The teaser then focuses on SRK's silhouette while the actor says how the man got his name and how fans have to wait a bit more to meet Pathan. Directed by Siddharth Anand, the film will be Yash Raj Films' 50th film and is only going to release in theatres on 25 January 2023. Guess, we will have to wait a little longer to watch King Khan on the big screen again.
