Trivia:

Redchillies has this special attachment with Trains in their movie., they have a train sequence in every SRK movie. Chennai Express, Swades, RAOne, Happy New Year, Dilwale and now FAN.

Goofs:

Factual errors: When Guarav visits Kings Cross Station he is shown showing his passport and boarding a train to Croatia. There is no border control at Kings Cross as none of the trains at that station travel outside of the UK, and trains from that station only travel north along the eastern coast of England and Scotland. There are also no trains that go directly from London to Croatia, with the furthest direct train into Europe being from St Pancras to Paris.

SRK is back with a big roar! <3

SRK has made a big comeback to the Bolly arena after a series of masala entertainers from the last 4-5 years. One of the best Bollywood thrillers I've watched since the last 5-6 years. Amazing first half, a slight declination in the sub post-interval session, and a brilliant climax which will put you in an ambiguity at the end of the movie and you'll be thinking about it again and again. The plot could have been a slightly better settled though. But I don't think any other movie without any actress in it and devoid of any songs, will be able to keep you glued to your seat throughout the whole 2 and a half hours. Amazing stuff from the Direcor, Maneesh Sharma. You're fabulous! :) Whatever it is, SRK is into one of his best avatars and he shows the world as to why is he called as the "Biggest movie star in the world". Take a bow! Salutes! :) Worth all your money! Go grab your tickets, and watch Fan. :)
