One of his fans named Aasif Khan said that he had wanted to watch the Siddharth Anand directorial with his girlfriend but she has married somebody else now as he tweeted, "Socha tha gf ke sath pathaan dekhunga lekin uski shadi kisi aur ke ho jayegi". The Swades actor replied to Aasif saying that he would enjoy Pathaan even if he watches it alone as the superstar tweeted, "So sorry man. But akele mein bhi film acchi hi lagegi…don’t worry."

One netizen replied to Aasif and said, "ab kya srk ne reply de diya ab to tumhare sath 200gf's jayegi theatre ko (After Shah Rukh Khan's reply, 200 girlfriends will go to the theatre with you)" and plenty others quote-tweeted Shah Rukh saying that this was the best reply in the entire #AskSRK session.
