And now, Pinkvilla has got an exclusive update on Deepika’s look and character sketch in the film. The actress will sport a stylish boy cut look in the film.

“It’s the character of a suave agent, who goes on a mission alongside Shah Rukh Khan, and after contemplating on multiple looks, they finally zeroed in to the boy cut (short hair) avatar for DP. She has already shot a considerable chunk in the film, and is expected to join the gang of Pathan again from mid of March,” revealed a trade source, adding further that the makers have already canned a grand entry scene for Deepika earlier in December. “It was a massive set up to film her introductory scene at YRF studios. The audience are on to see DP like never before in Pathan,” the source added.

On February 27, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan commenced shooting for the third schedule of Pathan at Yash Raj Studios in Mumbai. The shoot with the two Khan’s is going on in full swing, Salman will wrap up his part by March 6. While the sequence being shot at present features just Salman and SRK, Deepika too is expected to have a scene or two with the two Khan’s, however, a confirmation on the same is yet awaited. John Abraham, who plays the antagonist in the film, however is definitely not a part of the scene featuring Salman and SRK.
