Shah Rukh Khan`s upcoming film Pathaan has a huge Hollywood star Tom Cruise connect, according to the film's director Siddharth Anand. The director said: "When one sets out to make the spectacle action film of India with one of the all-time biggest heroes of our country, Shah Rukh Khan, you need to have a champion team that is unified in the vision."

Siddharth continued, "Thankfully we got an A-team that came together to push the visual envelope with Pathaan and I was delighted to have someone like Casey O'Neill, who has extensively worked with Tom Cruise, to be by our side."

Emmy award-nominated Casey, regarded as one of the best action directors in Hollywood, is the brain behind Tom Cruise`s death-defying stunts in films like Jack Reacher, Mission Impossible series films, Top Gun: Maverick and has also worked with Marvel Studios and Steven Spielberg to name a few.

You will have to see the film for that because we aren`t going to disclose any details from the film till it releases in theatres on 25 Jan."
