Irfan Pathan steals limelight in trailer of his debut film Cobra

Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan is all set to rock the theatres as his debut movie Cobra hits the screens on August 31, 2022. An A. R. Rahman musical, directed by Ajay Gnanamuthu, Pathan will be seen alongside the famed South Indian actor Chiyaan Vikram and KGF fame Shrinidhi Shetty. The trailer was launched on Thursday, August 25, and promises the audience an action-packed thriller. The upcoming film ‘Cobra’ will mark Irfan Pathan’s entry into the film industry, in which he portrays Aslan Yilmaz, an Interpol agent from Turkey. Earlier, Pathan had shared his thoughts after finishing the shoot for the film and said that he had an amazing time on the sets working on his first ever Tamil film. Pathan will play a pivotal role in the movie throughout, with Vikram and Shrinidhi in the lead roles. The film is an action thriller that portrays Vikram in more than 20 different, and unique, avatars. Playing the role of an Interpol agent, Pathan will be the antagonist in the film. From making his cricket debut to his commentary debut, to now a massive acting debut, Pathan has aced his journey. Irfan Pathan- A true all-rounder! The all-rounder, during his playing days, was considered one of the finest in the Indian team, purely because of his abilities to strike with the bat and his perfection with swing and seam bowling. Be it his sensational hat-trick against Pakistan, where he dismissed Salman Butt, Younis Khan, and Mohammad Yousuf in the Karachi Test of 2006, or his 210-run partnership with MS Dhoni against the same opposition, his performances are still highly acclaimed. Making his international debut at the very young age of 19 years, Pathan, with his brilliance on the field, made his mark and left an impression on the Indian side to become a regular face in the squad. After some ups and downs, he was recalled for the inaugural World T20 in 2007 and did not fail to amuse his fans. With his consistent efforts, he played a crucial role in India’s victory. Irfan Pathan ended his career with 1105 runs and 100 wickets in Tests. In ODIs, he has 1544 runs from 87 innings of 120 matches, in addition to 173 wickets. Speaking of the T20Is, Pathan has 172 runs from 14 innings of 24 matches and 28 wickets in total. After fulfilling his time on the field, he took the seat behind the mics, off the field, and started with his commentary stint. He’s a regular figure in the commentary panel during the IPL as well as hot-shot tournaments like the World Cup. Acing all his roles to perfection, Pathan will now be seen adding another feather to his cap with his acting debut.
