Between Pathaan and Dunki, Shah Rukh was also seen in the vigilante action thriller Jawan, which was directed by Atlee and turned out to be the highest-grossing film in the actor's career with the worldwide earnings of Rs 1100 crore. Pathaan had also grossed more than Rs 1000 crore globally. Now, we would have to wait and watch if Dunki becomes his third blockbuster of the year or not.
