About Jawan
A man, Azad (Shah Rukh Khan), is driven by a personal vendetta to rectify the wrongs in society, while keeping a promise he made to his mother, years ago. He comes up against a monstrous outlaw Kaalee (Vijay Sethupathi), who has caused extreme suffering to many.
Jawan is a combination of action, drama, emotion, and grandeur, flawlessly woven into the screenplay by Atlee. Shah Rukh Khan takes on the roles of Azad and Vikram Rathore with unprecedented vigor, steering the narrative with his exceptional performance. The film seamlessly integrates impactful action sequences with heartfelt emotions, all within a compelling storyline. Jawan stands as the epitome of peak commercial entertainment, boasting numerous crowd-pleasing moments and is poised to become a historic blockbuster. Executed with Shah Rukh Khan's signature touch in the commercial filmmaking realm, the movie successfully embodies vigilante storytelling done right.
Jawan box office
Jawan not only shattered initial box office records but also secured its place among lifetime box office record-breakers. This accomplishment is rare in Indian cinema, with only a few films achieving a similar feat. Grossing over Rs 1,148.32 crore (US$140 million), it emerged as the highest-grossing Indian film of 2023, the second-highest-grossing Hindi film and the fifth-highest-grossing Indian film.
