Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Pathaan’ is now set to be released in 3,000 plus screens across Russia and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) on July 13, according to livemint.com.
CIS countries include Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan.
The movie, which hit Indian theatres on January 25 and also stars John Abraham and Deepika Padukone, earned $121.3 million at the global box office.
Earlier on 12 May, the Pathaan was also released in Bangladesh theatres.
Analysts consider ‘Pathaan’ as a mega comeback vehicle for Shah Rukh after his absence from leading man roles for more than four years.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, the film follows the titular spy (Shah Rukh) who comes out of exile to stop terrorist group Outfit X from launching a debilitating attack on India.
It is the fourth film in producer Aditya Chopra's spy universe, following Salman Khan's "Ek Tha Tiger" and "Tiger Zinda Hai", and "War", featuring Hrithik Roshan.
