Lord Krishna is said to have been born in jail to parents Vasudeva and Devaki. ‘Jawan’ was scheduled to release on June 2 but was postponed to September 7, 2023.
‘Jawan’, directed by Atlee and produced by Gauri Khan and Gaurav Verma under Red Chillies Entertainment, has been performing extraordinarily well in theatres worldwide. It has made Rs 350 crore gross at the worldwide box office and is eyeing to enter Rs 300 crore club in India soon.
The film also stars Sanya Malhotra, Sunil Grover, Priyamani, Ridhi Dogra, Ashlesha Thakur, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Girija Oak, Lehar Khan and Aaliyah Qureishi. The new movie also features Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Dutt in cameo appearances.
Google India recently celebrated ‘Jawan’. You ask, how? Those who search for the film on Google will see a walkie-talkie icon appear on the bottom of the screen. The moment that it is clicked, the screen gets covered by bandages and is followed by Shah Rukh Khan's voice saying “Ready.”
Billed as a high-octane thriller, ‘Jawan’ follows the story of a man set out to correct the wrongs of society.
