[21] He then starred alongside Sharma in Jab Harry Met Sejal (2017) and Zero (2018), both of which were commercially unsuccessful. [22] Following a hiatus, Khan made a career comeback with the 2023 action films Pathaan and Jawan , each earning over ₹10 billion (US$120 million) to emerge as his highest-grossing releases. [23] [24] [25]
