'Jawan' collected Rs 65.5 crore on opening day in India and crossed the Rs 500 crore mark globally in its first weekend. The film directed by Atlee was released in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. The film also stars Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone, Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Sunil Grover among others. Sanjay Dutt also makes a special appearance in the film.
To celebrate the film's success, Shah Rukh Khan, Atlee, Deepika Padukone, Anirudh Ravichander, Raja Kumari and others addressed the media at YRF Studios. When Atlee was asked about his reaction to the record-breaking numbers of the film, he said, "I am a different director. To say it in one word, the day I met Shah Rukh sir, we decided to work together and bring a film for everyone. I remember writing love letters in our teenage days on plain white sheets. 'Jawan' is my love letter to SRK sir." To this, Shah Rukh replied: "I am always hungry for love. I live for love and this love letter has made me go overboard."
Shah Rukh, during the recent Ask SRK session, hinted at the possible sequel of Jawan. When a fan asked the superstar, "Sir kaali ke saath âdeal' kyu nahi kar rahe... I am a big Vijay Sethupathi sir fan!," he replied with a hint of the sequel's plot. Shah Rukh said, "I am a big fan of Vijay sir too.. Par Kaali ka kaala dhan toh le liya ab dekho doosron ke bhi Swiss banks se lekar aata hoon⦠Buss visa ka hi wait kar raha hoon. Ha ha!!!"
