Overview
- Khan, who held a Reddit AMA on Wednesday, criticized recent films for glorifying aggression and said he has no interest in playing a “hairy, angry man covered in blood.”
- He said his comeback feature Adhure Hum Adhure Tum is in post-production and that a hoped-for late-2026 release depends on Netflix’s decision.
- Multiple outlets and social media users interpreted his comments as an indirect swipe at recent hits like Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, though he did not name anyone.
- He described himself as an LGBTQ ally and said he would consider such stories, adding that he reads scripts carefully to avoid queerbaiting.
- Khan framed his long break since 2015 as a reset that left him emotionally healthier, and his stance lands as violent male-led blockbusters such as Dhurandhar 2 dominate the box office.
