Taran previously predicted that Jawan would be the fastest to enter the 300-crore club. The hype around Jawan had led to a tsunami at ticket counters. People flocked to theatres to watch their beloved stars Shah Rukh, Nayanthara, and Vijay Sethupathi on the big screen. Everyone, from fans to celebs, is applauding the actioner. Many celebrities, including Ananya Panday, Kiara Advani, Mahesh Babu, and Riteish Deshmukh, have praised ‘Jawan’.
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 ‘deal’ 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!!!"
