Mumbai/IBNS: Filmmaker Karan Johar, who is also a dear friend of Shah Rukh Khan, review the actor's recently released film 'Pathaan' and called it 'the biggest blockbuster'.

In a long note calling Pathaan, KJo said that SRK aka "King" waited for the right time to rule.

Towards the end, Karan Johar also mentioned Salman Khan's cameo in the film.

He wrote, "(no spoiler but the Best sequence of the film is with BHAI and BHAIJAAN) I stood up and clapped !!!!!"

Pathaan opened to a massive box office collection on Wednesday and as per trade analysts, the film is eyeing over Rs. 50 crore earnings on the very first day.

The film, which co-stars actors Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in the lead, was screened as early as 6 am on Wednesday reflecting the craze around 57-year-old Shah Rukh Khan, who had taken a break from films following the dull run of his last project Zero in the box office in 2018.

Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar have worked together in several blockbuster hit films including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kal Ho Naa Ho and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna.

Meanwhile, Karan Johar is set to make his comeback as a director with his next film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, starring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh in the lead.
