Some of the scenes in Pathaan are related to past films of YRF (Yash Raj Films) spy universe. Indiatimes has churned out these hidden Easter Eggs from Pathaan only or you.?

1. Tu Hai Meri 'Karen' -?There's one hilarious scene wherein SRK infiltrates the bedroom of a Russian woman named Karen to steal. Karen possesses the key to a safe where 'rakht beej' is kept, in Moscow's Woskwich Tower. She was supposed to be fast asleep after unknowingly taking sleeping pills, however, she wasn't. And when Pathaan (SRK) is taking her fingerprints, she wakes up leaving him shocked. At that moment, SRK croons the iconic song Tu Hai Meri Kiran from Darr (1993), and mouths his iconic dialogue K-K-K-K-Kiran." But he replaces Kiran with Karen.?
