According to the tweets, the clip was recorded at the Malegaon Mohan Theatre, where moviegoers were attending a screening of ‘Ek Villain Returns’. The video also sees a group of men celebrating SRK’s teaser by swinging their handkerchiefs in the air. Another is even seen taking off his shirt and waving it around during the preview.
‘Jawan’ marks Shah Rukh’s first outing with filmmaker Atlee. The film which is touted to be the actor’s first pan-Indian project was rumoured to star Nayanthara as the leading lady.
SRK, in a recent Instagram LIVE, confirmed that the actress will star opposite him in the upcoming action flick. Without divulging too many details, he said, “There is Nayanthara ji in it.”
Talking about the film, Shah Rukh said, “Too early to say. There is still a long way to go. There is not much I can tell you about Jawan except the fact that I am having a great time as an actor. And Atlee, the director, it is a different kind of film. Everybody has seen his work. He makes outstanding mass-oriented films, again a genre I have never done. So, I wanted to try my hands on it. And I think me and Atlee have good chemistry. I bring in some (to the film), and he brings in some. Whatever we have done of Jawan is thrilling and exciting.”
The film will release across five languages – Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada in theatres across the globe on June 2, 2023.
