Jawan box office collection day 5: SRK thriller becomes third Hindi film to earn Rs 3 billion this year

<p>In recent years, Bollywood's biggest star Shah Rukh Khan has stopped speaking to the press directly.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Instead, he is reaching out and speaking his mind through his cinema. In the past year, Khan has made a splashing comeback - first in&nbsp;<i>Pathaan&nbsp;</i>and now, eight months on, in&nbsp;<i>Jawan</i>.&nbsp;</p>

<p><i>Pathaan</i>&nbsp;came at a time when Khan had taken a sabbatical of four years after delivering a series of duds at the box office. Many claim that Khan was disappointed and reassessing his choices in scripts after films like&nbsp;<i>Fan&nbsp;</i>and&nbsp;<i>Zero</i>&nbsp;failed to create a mark.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Or maybe, Covid pandemic compelled him to take a break of sorts.&nbsp;</p>

<p>One doesn't know why or what led to Khan's long break from facing the camera. But the man ensured he made a comeback that would be remembered by many for years to come.</p>

<p>Khan has ruled the box office for over three decades and is perhaps one of the most known Indian entertainment industry faces in the world. Loved by generations, the man has changed the way romance is perceived in Indian cinema in this period.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While he is revered and loved, he is also loathed by certain sections of society, deeply. For the right-leaning, he is a Muslim man living and ruling the hearts of a predominantly Hindu nation-&nbsp; that itself can make many uncomfortable.</p>

<p>SRK is also one of those few actors who has never bent on any ruling party and its ideologies.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Also read:&nbsp;Shah Rukh Khan in Jawan: Bollywood's reigning monarch strikes gold yet again</strong></p>

<p>Haters will state that he and his family have always had a leaning for the Congress party, but the man has never campaigned for the party or curried favours when it was at the Centre. Many of his contemporaries have over the years shown their allegiance to the governments at the Centre, yet SRK has steered clear of it.</p>

<p>The actor has had to pay a hefty price for it though.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In 2015, in an interview with journalist Barkha Dutt, SRK spoke about religious intolerance in the country, which led to a nationwide hate campaign against the actor, with many terming him as 'anti-national.'</p>

<p>After that interview,&nbsp;Khan almost withdrew into a shell, refraining from commenting on any political issue, lest that gets misconstrued and cause a backlash.</p>

<p>In 2021, his son Aryan was arrested in a drug case in Mumbai.&nbsp;Many feel it was to rattle Khan. The actor, however, maintained a stoic silence throughout. Even when Aryan's name was cleared earlier this year, Khan kept mum on the issue—no statement to the media, no comments on social media either.</p>

<p>Films made Khan the star that he is. And so, he has now decided to use the medium to say what he feels.</p>

<p><i>Pathaan</i>&nbsp;courted controversy weeks before its release. It was scrutinised by the Censor Board after a song featuring Deepika Padukone and SRK made certain people uncomfortable. Some claimed it was vulgar, showing a Muslim man manhandling (!?) a Hindu woman, dressed in saffron colour. It may sound bizarre to most of us but the allegations prompted the state-owned Censor board to reassess the film.</p>

<p>But in spite of what appeared to be an orchestrated hate campaign,&nbsp;<i>Pathaan</i>&nbsp;opened to thunderous response and just reiterated Khan's liberal stand as an individual off camera.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the SIddharth Anand directorial, Khan plays an intelligence officer who was named Pathaan by an Afghan family who saved him during a war.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He is an orphan in the film. It has Deepika Padukone playing a Pakistani intelligence agent who joins hands with Pathaan to fight the evil: an Indian ex-army officer played by John Abraham, who went rogue and now poses a threat to world peace and order.</p>

<p>The actor, who is married to Gauri Khan, a Hindu, has time and again spoken about his religious tolerance and how his children practice both his and his wife's religion at home.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In&nbsp;<i>Pathaan</i>, Khan seemed to play an extension of his persona who fights for India but never really bashes the neighbour or for that matter any religion.</p>

<p>If&nbsp;<i>Pathaan</i>&nbsp;talked about his liberal stand,&nbsp;<i>Jawan&nbsp;</i>talks about Khan the feminist, who has been a vocal ally of women's empowerment.&nbsp;</p>

<p>His NGO has for years financially helped acid-attack victims, the opening credits of his films feature the leading lady's name before his and he has often talked on public platforms about the role women- his mother, sister, wife and daughter- have played in his life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In&nbsp;<i>Jawan</i>- a vigilante drama- SRK takes on the system with a bunch of female convicts who have been wronged in society and landed behind bars on false charges.&nbsp;SRK and 'his girls' are portrayed as larger than life, taking on goons double their size.</p>

<p><i>Jawan&nbsp;</i>also subtly delivers a message or two to the government and the fallacies in the system.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The methods may not be conventional, but SRK's Azaad Rathore gives solutions on problems like farmer's suicide due to debt, the lack of facilities in state-run hospitals and the importance of voting for the right party (ahem!).&nbsp;</p>

<p>The film even takes a sly dig (or does it) on the Aryan Khan case, with the older SRK telling the villain to first talk to the father before laying his hand on the son:&nbsp;"Bete ko haath lagane se phele baap se baat kar".</p>

<p>We get it, Shah Rukh, we do and we applaud you for doing it this way.</p>

Jawan is out, and like it or not, Shah Rukh Khan's politics is here to stay

<p>If <em>Pathaan</em> placed Shah Rukh Khan in the top position after a series of dismal box office duds, his latest,&nbsp;<em>Jawan, </em>directed by Atlee, will cement his position as the king of the box office. <em>Jawan</em> has all the elements of a quintessential Bollywood blockbuster. Whistle-inducing dialogues and action sequences, a credible plot, woman power, foot-tapping music, a bevy of stars, and of course Khan himself. Atlee masterfully crafts a tale that showcases Shah Rukh Khan in all his glory - and if you aren't happy with one - the film offers two of them - both brawny, flexing muscles, hitting goons and charming everyone around with complete ease.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Written by Atlee and S. Ramanagirivasan, <em>Jawan</em>'s plot is slightly elaborate and takes a while to sit in. With multiple twists, the screenplay manages to engage you from the beginning. Some are predictable and you can call the bluff, but some, one can't foresee at all.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>What's <em>Jawan</em> about?</strong><br />
<br />
<em>Jawan</em>'s plot takes a while to set in. It opens with a bandaged man saving a remote village, presumably in Ladakh from a bunch of invaders. The film then cuts to 30 years later when a battered, bandaged, bald madman takes a metro train in Mumbai hostage. He has his aids, a bunch of smart, stealthy women dressed in combat uniforms, well versed with hacking the system. Officer Narmada Rai (Nayanthara) is summoned to negotiate with the man, who dances to Bekarar Karke Hume and cracks dry jokes as he narrates the story of a farmer who died a few years back unable to repay his loans to the authorities. When Narmada asks what would make him free his hostages, the man states he wants Rs 4 billion&nbsp;to be transferred from billionaire and arms dealer Kaali's (Vijay Sethupathi) account&nbsp;within a few minutes.&nbsp;</p>

<br />
The police give in to his demands, and he, along with his girls, disappears leaving all the hostages charmed. So much so that they turn hostile towards the case. Turns out the man is an IPS officer and head of a women's jail in Mumbai,&nbsp;Azaad Rathore (SRK) who has turned a bunch of inmates from the jail into vigilantes. These women have all landed in the said jail due to wrong allegations and have had a transformative life inside the jail, thanks to their captain.&nbsp;</p>

<br />
Azaad meanwhile unknowingly befriends Narmada's daughter who wants him to become her father. A single mother, Narmada agrees to marry Azaad after she sees her daughter's fondness for the man. Narmada, of course, can't recognise Azaad as he works in disguise. As cases of heists increase, Narmada takes it upon herself to nab the culprits. Would she know Azaad's truth? And what motivates Azaad to stage such heists? Atlee forms an intricate story that goes back and forth in time - keeping the viewers hooked with multiple subplots.&nbsp;<br />

<strong>Shah Rukh Khan in all his glory</strong><br />
<br />
<em>Pathaan </em>reiterated SRK's liberal stance and <em>Jawaan</em> brings forth the feminist side of the actor. Khan has been a vocal ally for women's empowerment for years. In <em>Jawan,</em> sure he plays a mentor of sorts to a bunch of wronged women, but the film celebrates strong women and their might to fight it out. All the female characters are projected as strong women who can take on a goon or two on their own and yet be maternal and soft when the time arises. Nayanthara, who makes her Bollywood debut in <em>Jawan,</em> plays a feisty cop who will not slow down even for a second due to familial emotions when duty calls.</p>

<p>There's Deepika Padukone in an extended cameo, exubering grace to her character. Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, and a bunch of girls play SRK's 'gang of girls' who can tackle men double their size.&nbsp;</p>

While the film celebrates girl power, it presents SRK in a larger-than-life role. He is in a double role and the older character seemingly gives tribute to Rajinikanth with his walk and talk in almost every scene. The action sequences are elaborate, scenes&nbsp;that are common in action films down south - and are still new to Hindi cinema. Khan, the star of Hindi cinema for decades, eases into the south culture very well,&nbsp;perhaps due to the able direction of Atlee, and looks comfortable doing what he does on screen.</p>

<p>Giving SRK company and complementing him in every scene is the very talented Vijay Sethupathi who plays the antagonist. Slightly menacing, and slightly quirky (he gets some of the best lines), Sethupathi helps alleviate some of the most average scenes to another level. It's not a role that demands a lot from the talented actor but he still manages to impress you.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Anirudh's fresh tunes</strong><br />
<br />
The film's music needs special mention. Composer Anirudh, who is a well-known name in Tamil cinema, makes his Bollywood debut and delivers a stellar soundtrack. Foot tapping, refreshing, and unique - <em>Jawan </em>music is hatke from the usual Hindi films. Dialogues by Sumit Arora draw in the claps in the theatre and camerawork by&nbsp;GK Vishnu also impresses.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The flaws in <em>Jawan</em></strong><br />
<br />
The elaborate fight sequences, some of the scenes, and plot points require a certain suspension of disbelief but <em>Jawan</em> tackles pertinent societal issues in a very commercial setup and manages to throw in entertainment and thrill in between a serious narrative.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
I did have a problem with the graphic content in the film. There are too many scenes that show death in grave detail and even disclaimers do not help. From suicide to capital punishment to death due to food poisoning - everything is shown elaborately. I wish the maker had toned it down. The screenplay also uses children to force out emotions from the viewers. You know certain scenes were written keeping in mind to make the viewers tear up.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
I would still place <em>Jawan </em>above <em>Pathaan.</em> Yes, you read that right.<em> Jawan</em> is far more coherent, takes up a few causes and delivers a message or two while entertaining with Khan in a double role.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
SRK and Atlee take on the system in <em>Jawan </em>but they take a very complicated route to send out the message. The course is 2 hours 49 minutes long with multiple, elaborate action sequences. It's a tad bit long but still a very thrilling ride. Watch out for the climax sequence, and Sanjay Dutt and Deepika Padukone's cameos.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Did someone say Shah Rukh Khan for Prime Minister? Yes? Yes.&nbsp;<br />

If Pathaan placed Shah Rukh Khan in the top position after a series of dismal box office duds, his latest, Jawan, directed by Atlee, will cement his position as the king of the box office.

If Pathaan placed Shah Rukh Khan in the top position after a series of dismal box office duds, his latest, Jawan, directed by Atlee, will cement his position as the king of the box office. Jawan has all the elements of a quintessential Bollywood blockbuster. Whistle-inducing dialogues and action sequences, a credible plot, woman power, foot-tapping music, a bevy of stars, and of course Khan himself. Atlee masterfully crafts a tale that showcases Shah Rukh Khan in all his glory - and if you aren't happy with one - the film offers two of them - both brawny, flexing muscles, hitting goons and charming everyone around with complete ease. Written by Atlee and S. Ramanagirivasan, Jawan's plot is slightly elaborate and takes a while to sit in. With multiple twists, the screenplay manages to engage you from the beginning. Some are predictable and you can call the bluff, but some, one can't foresee at all. What's Jawan about? Jawan's plot takes a while to set in. It opens with a bandaged man saving a remote village, presumably in Ladakh from a bunch of invaders. The film then cuts to 30 years later when a battered, bandaged, bald madman takes a metro train in Mumbai hostage. He has his aids, a bunch of smart, stealthy women dressed in combat uniforms, well versed with hacking the system. Officer Narmada Rai (Nayanthara) is summoned to negotiate with the man, who dances to Bekarar Karke Hume and cracks dry jokes as he narrates the story of a farmer who died a few years back unable to repay his loans to the authorities. When Narmada asks what would make him free his hostages, the man states he wants Rs 4 billion to be transferred from billionaire and arms dealer Kaali's (Vijay Sethupathi) account within a few minutes. READ: Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan releases, celebrations begin as early as 5 am across cities in India The police give in to his demands, and he, along with his girls, disappears leaving all the hostages charmed. So much so that they turn hostile towards the case. Turns out the man is an IPS officer and head of a women's jail in Mumbai, Azaad Rathore (SRK) who has turned a bunch of inmates from the jail into vigilantes. These women have all landed in the said jail due to wrong allegations and have had a transformative life inside the jail, thanks to their captain. Azaad meanwhile unknowingly befriends Narmada's daughter who wants him to become her father. A single mother, Narmada agrees to marry Azaad after she sees her daughter's fondness for the man. Narmada, of course, can't recognise Azaad as he works in disguise. As cases of heists increase, Narmada takes it upon herself to nab the culprits. Would she know Azaad's truth? And what motivates Azaad to stage such heists? Atlee forms an intricate story that goes back and forth in time - keeping the viewers hooked with multiple subplots.

Jawan review: Shah Rukh Khan cements his position as numero uno with this vigilante thriller

<p><em>Jawan</em> Day is here! Shah Rukh Khan's latest film <em>Jawan </em>released worldwide amid a lot of celebrations. Even as several cinema halls across cities screened the film in the early hours of the day, <em>Jawan </em>also fell prey to piracy. Just a few hours after the film was released in theatres, it leaked online.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
According to reports, the pirated version of the film is now available on Telegram and Torrent websites.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Fans react to <em>Jawan</em>'s leak online</strong></h2>

<p>Several fans of Shah Rukh Khan expressed disappointment over the news of the leak. Some were worried that the leak would impact its box office performance. A fan tweeted, "Shah Rukh Khan, it's too bad. Someone leaked your new movie<em> Jawan </em>today. I think it's too bad for collection and record, so please do something. <em>Jawan </em>movie available on the internet."<br />
<br />
One person tagged the Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Anurag Thakur and Shah Rukh Khan on Twitter (X), and wrote, "Which law have you made? Right now no one is following that law. <em>Jawan </em>has been released today, and after some time it has been leaked online. The film industry suffers huge losses due to movies being leaked online."</p>

<h2><strong><em>Jawan</em> box office prediction</strong></h2>

<p>The rousing advance booking for<em> Jawan</em> has made everyone hopeful. Trade pundits are expecting <em>Jawan</em> to earn Rs 700 million on the first day itself. SRK's last release, <em>Pathaan</em>, is now the highest-grossing film of 2023. <em>Jawan</em> may just upstage <em>Pathaan</em>'s record at the box office.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The film has also typically courted controversy before its release. A day before its theatrical release, the film trended on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the hashtag #BoycottJawan mainly due to the involvement of Udhayanidhi Stalin. Stalin is a renowned film producer and Tamil Nadu state minister. He is backing the film in Tamil Nadu and is reportedly one of the main distributors of the film in the region.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Early morning celebrations for Jawan</strong></h2>

<p>The social media trend, however, didn’t appear to gather much momentum as theatres in several Indian cities went ahead with their plans for early morning shows to maximize on the excitement around <em>Jawan</em>'s release and also Janmashtami, a holiday in many parts of the country.<br />
<br />
In a video from Mumbai's Gaeity Galaxy, the audience can be seen dancing and hooting as <em>'Zinda Banda'</em> plays on the screens. The cinema hall is screening early morning shows for the first time in its history.&nbsp;</p>

'Jawan' craze grips India: SRK's latest films hits screens

<p>Shah Rukh Khan's film <em>Jawan</em> is just hours from its big theatrical release. The film has been creating a lot of buzz for the past month - ever since the first teaser of the film came out.

<p><strong>What led to the trend #BoycottJawan?</strong><br />
<br />
<em>Jawan,</em> directed by Atlee, stars Shah Rukh Khan along with Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in lead roles. The film has been made in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu. &nbsp;Certain sections on social media have been demanding a boycott of the film, a day before its theatrical release, mainly due to the involvement of Udhayanidhi Stalin. Stalin is a renowned film producer and Tamil Nadu state minister. He is backing the film in Tamil Nadu and is reportedly one of the main distributors of the film in the region.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
A few days back, the minister sparked outrage with a controversial statement comparing Sanatan Dharma to mosquitoes and dengue. This comment led to a significant backlash, and the producer-politician stated that he was not afraid of any legal action.</p>

Why is #BoycottJawan trending on social media a day before Jawan's release?

<p>It was a historic day for India as the country's Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission made a safe soft landing on the south pole of the Moon, stamping the authority of the Indian scientific community worldwide. The space mission backed by India's bright scientists and space researchers makes India the fourth country in the world to achieve the feat of lunar landing.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
As Indians worldwide celebrated the milestone, several Indian celebrities took to social media to congratulate ISRO and fellow Indians on this momentous occasion.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Indian actors like Anil Kapoor, Chiranjeevi, Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Kamal Haasan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Anushka Sharma, and many more celebrated the special moment with fans on social media.&nbsp;<br />

Anil Kapoor shared a video of himself on X (formerly known as Twitter) watching the glorious moment in history on TV and wrote, "What a brilliant display of Indian Space technology and genius!

It was a historic day for India as the country's Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission made a safe soft landing on the south pole of the Moon, stamping the authority of the Indian scientific community worldwide.

It was a historic day for India as the country's Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission made a safe soft landing on the south pole of the Moon, stamping the authority of the Indian scientific community worldwide. The space mission backed by India's bright scientists and space researchers makes India the fourth country in the world to achieve the feat of lunar landing. As Indians worldwide celebrated the milestone, several Indian celebrities took to social media to congratulate ISRO and fellow Indians on this momentous occasion. Indian actors like Anil Kapoor, Chiranjeevi, Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Kamal Haasan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Anushka Sharma, and many more celebrated the special moment with fans on social media. Anil Kapoor shared a video of himself on X (formerly known as Twitter) watching the glorious moment in history on TV and wrote, "What a brilliant display of Indian Space technology and genius!

A historic day!: Kamal Haasan, Chiranjeevi, SRK and others celebrate Chandrayaan 3 landing

<p>Shah Rukh Khan, often lovingly referred to as the King of Bollywood, has always been known for his charismatic personality and wit. Turns out the actor, whose last release <em>Pathaan</em> was a stupendous success, was always very good with his words. Proof of this can be seen in an old handwritten essay by him during his college days when he used to live in Delhi with his family.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The essay has taken social media by storm, showcasing the superstar's charm even before he graced the silver screen.<br />
<br />
The viral essay by SRK offers an intimate look into the actor's early life and personality.</p>

<p>The excerpt from the essay reads, "I had a very happy childhood as far as I remember. I was the second normal child born to my parents after a five-year age gap with my elder sister. My actions at the age of 5 years were those of any other kid down the block - winking at girls of the Manavsthali School, throwing flying kisses at aunts 6-7 times my age, and dancing to the tune of Chakke pe Chakka."</p>

<p>The actor also talks about his interest in theatre and why he chose Hansraj College for graduation as he felt the dramatics society of the college was the best.&nbsp;</p>

Shah Rukh Khan's handwritten essay from his college days goes viral on social media

<p>The first song of <em>Jawan</em> was unveiled on Monday and from the looks of it, it has all the trappings of becoming the next blockbuster song. Titled <em>Zinda Banda</em>, the song is a visual spectacle and has Shah Rukh Khan dancing with&nbsp;1,000-plus women. The song begins with glimpses of Shah Rukh Khan in a police uniform and then cuts to the next few scenes where we see him shaking a leg in a red shirt with a background full of women.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In the song, we can also spot Sanya Malhotra and Priyamani who play key roles in the film that has directed by Atlee.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The star of the song is, of course, SRK, and <em>Zinda Banda</em> has uncanny similarities to Khan's iconic hit <em>Lungi Dance.&nbsp;</em></p>

<p>Sharing the video on his Instagram feed, Shah Rukh Khan wrote, "When principles are at stake, one must fight, This battle is what makes you alive! I thank Wasim Barelvi sahab with all my heart for letting us use this beautiful couplet with a minor change. The song is written by Irshad Kamil Sir, and the music is by my dear friend Anirudh. Presenting, Zinda Banda!"</p>

The first song of Jawan was unveiled on Monday and from the looks of it, it has all the trappings of becoming the next blockbuster song. Titled Zinda Banda, the song is a visual spectacle and has Shah Rukh Khan dancing with 1,000-plus women. The song begins with glimpses of Shah Rukh Khan in a police uniform and then cuts to the next few scenes where we see him shaking a leg in a red shirt with a background full of women. In the song, we can also spot Sanya Malhotra and Priyamani who play key roles in the film that has directed by Atlee. The star of the song is, of course, SRK, and Zinda Banda has uncanny similarities to Khan's iconic hit Lungi Dance. Sharing the video on his Instagram feed, Shah Rukh Khan wrote, "When principles are at stake, one must fight, This battle is what makes you alive! I thank Wasim Barelvi sahab with all my heart for letting us use this beautiful couplet with a minor change. The song is written by Irshad Kamil Sir, and the music is by my dear friend Anirudh.

Jawan: Meet the choreographer of 'Beqarar Karke' track featuring Shah Rukh Khan 

<p>Shah Rukh Khan is all set to appear in filmmaker Atlee's upcoming film <em>Jawan.</em> This will be SRK's second film in 2023 and his first collaboration with Atlee, who is well-known in South India for his blockbuster films. The film reportedly has an all-south crew and is pitched as a South film with a North Indian actor playing the lead. The recently released prevue&nbsp;of <em>Jawan </em>also indicated that the visuals, aesthetics and action sequences made it look like a South Indian film.<br />
<br />
Khan, in fact, has himself admitted that the film is heavily&nbsp;influenced&nbsp;by&nbsp;Tamil films. The superstar recently did an AMA session on Twitter with his fans and was asked if he watched a lot of movies to prepare for his role in <em>Jawan.</em><br />
<br />
On Thursday, a fan tweeted, "#AskSRK did you see a lot of movies revolving around your role in Jawan to better prepare for it?”<br />
Shah Rukh responded that he watched films made by the director of Atlee and several South Indian actors, including Allu Arjun, Thalapathy Vijay, Rajinikanth, and Yash.</p>

<p>“I watched a lot of films of Atlee, Vijay sir, Allu Arjun ji, Rajni sir, Yash and loads of other stars to understand the language of expression for the world that was being created. And yes then prepped for my own character too. #Jawan,” said the actor.<br />
<br />
<em>Jawan</em> also features Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi - both bonafide stars of South India.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Khan's admission of watching other actors' work and drawing inspiration from them was lauded by fans. Most appreciated that Khan was open about his prep and how respectfully he addressed each of the actors.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Owing to the pan-India&nbsp;success of films like Pushpa and KGF, actors Allu Arjun and Yash have now become household names across the country. Rajinikanth has always been Tamil cinema’s biggest pan-India star. Thalapathy Vijay, on the other hand, has been the biggest box office draw in Kollywood for several years now.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<em>Jawan</em> will hit theatres on September&nbsp; 7 in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Farhan Akhtar's <em>Don</em> franchise is ready with the third installment. The first film starred Shah Rukh Khan in the lead and was a remake of Amitabh Bachchan's classic film by the same name. <em>Don 2 </em>was released a few years later and was loved equally. Both the films were directed by Farhan Akhtar and featured SRK in the lead. Now, the producer of the franchise, Ritesh Sidhwani has confirmed that the third part of the film is being planned and Farhan is currently working on the script. While the official announcement around the film has not been done yet, multiple reports suggest that SRK has opted out of the sequel and Ranveer Singh has been roped in to play the lead.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Ranveer Singh as the new don in Don 3?</strong><br />
&nbsp;</h2>

<p>If multiple reports are to be believed, the third installment of <em>Don</em> will have Ranveer Singh playing the titular character. Ranveer has worked with Farhan and Ritesh's production house in <em>Dil Dhadakne Do</em> and <em>Gully Boy</em>. A source close to the project spoke to News18 and said, "Following Shah Rukh’s exit, the makers of <em>Don 3 </em>were looking for a popular and bankable name who could take the Don legacy ahead. And they have finally zeroed in on Ranveer. This association has borne fruit in the past and it will be no surprise if the collaboration proves to be another runaway hit. We’re waiting to see how fans of the<em> Don</em> franchise react to Ranveer’s casting considering Shah Rukh won over everyone with his charismatic portrayal of <em>Don.</em>"<br />
<br />
Ranveer has reportedly already shot the announcement video which will be released soon. It is also said that the makers have informed SRK about Ranveer's inclusion in the project.</p>

<h2><strong>Why is SRK not part of Don 3?</strong></h2>

<p>According to a report in Pinkvilla, SRK decided to opt out of the project as he was not interested to play the same character for the third time around.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani have had multiple detailed discussions with Shah Rukh Khan on <em>Don 3</em>. Before the pandemic, a couple of ideas were also discussed, which took the shape of a script through the pandemic. Meetings have happened recently too, but Shah Rukh is not too keen to get back as <em>Don</em> again at this point in time. He is willing to do commercial films that cater to a universal section of the audience, and <em>Don </em>certainly doesn’t fit the bracket of cinema that he is willing to do for the coming few years. He has conveyed his decision to the stakeholders at Excel."<br />

Ranveer Singh will next be seen in Karan Johar's <em>Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani</em> which co-stars Alia Bhatt.&nbsp;</p>

Ranveer Singh to replace Shah Rukh Khan in Don 3?

<p>Shah Rukh Khan ranks among the richest superstars in the country, but when he bought his landmark house, Mannat in Mumbai, he revealed he practically was broke and didn`t have any money to get it refurbished and furnished and so his wife Gauri Khan turned designer for the house. Over the years, Mannat has become one of the most landmark structures of Mumbai where scores of tourists make a pit stop every day.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
King Khan, who made a spectacular comeback earlier this year with <em>Pathaan</em>, was interacting with the media on Monday night during the launch of Gauri Khan`s coffee-table book, <em>My Life In Design.</em><br />
<br />
Sharing the interesting story behind their house Mannat and how Gauri Khan entered the world of designing Shah Rukh said, "When we bought Mannat, it was way beyond our means, and once we were done buying the house, we didn`t have money to decorate it. We hired a designer, only to realise we couldn`t afford him.<br />
<br />
"So, I turned to Gauri, as she had artistic talent, and asked her to be the designer for our house. Mannat started like that, and over time, we earned and kept buying little stuff for the house. We even once went to South Africa to buy leather for the sofas, and I think that training ground got her into designing."<br />
<br />
Gauri Khan's book charts her journey as a designer with exclusive pictures of her and her family. Unseen images of Mannat and the design thought processes that went into turning around the heritage property, and other key projects as well, are a part of the book.<br />
<br />
Gauri Khan also spoke about her husband being the hardest to please. Her most challenging project has been designing the Red Chillies Entertainment office.<br />
<br />
She said: "Every project is dear to a designer, whether you`re working on something big or small, each project has challenges, and we have to give it our best. I have been working for so many years, but I think Shah Rukh`s project, the Red Chillies office, was a tough one to crack. Our team was always struggling to get his approval because he would come up with a better design, at all times."</p>

<p><meta name="uuid" content="uuidj3tOiHo22rHW" /><meta charset="utf-8" />Indian edtech firm&nbsp;<em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;and Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan have been asked to compensate an aspirant of the Indian Administration Service (IAS) for alleged “fraudulent behaviour” and “unfair trade practice”. The order was issued by the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission of Indore, a city in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The complainant woman, Priyanka Dixit, said she enrolled for the IAS coaching course with&nbsp;<em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;after being influenced by its advertisement which featured Shah Rukh Khan. She paid INR 1.08 lakh in fees for the course in 2021. She was promised by the company that her course would start on January 14, 2021, but it never did.</p>

<h2><strong>What did the commission say?</strong></h2>

<p>The redressal commission asked&nbsp;<em>Byju’s&nbsp;</em>to return the full course fees to Priyanka along with 12 per cent annual interest. It also asked both Khan and&nbsp;<em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;to give her INR 5,000 as litigation cost and INR 50,000 as compensation and mental agony. The commission also clarified that the local manager of&nbsp;<em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;in Indore and actor Khan must pay the amount “jointly or severally” to Dixit.</p>

<p>The order released by the redressal commission read, “The woman complainant was encouraged to take admission in Byju’s coaching (course) by placing false and misleading online advertisements on behalf of the opposition parties. No coaching facility was provided after receiving the fee and despite assurance of refund of the amount, the fee was not refunded, which in itself is fraudulent behaviour and shows unfair trade practice.”</p>

<h2><strong>Why was Shah Rukh Khan implicated in the case?</strong></h2>

<p>As per Priyanka Dixit’s lawyer Suresh Kanga, consumers in India can rightfully sue even the people advertising the product. “As per provisions of the Consumer Protection Act, a person can file a complaint against a company for errors in services as well as against those advertising it”, Kanga said.</p>

<h2><strong><em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;in hot water</strong></h2>

<p><em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;has already run afoul of India’s prime economic intelligence agency Enforcement Directorate or ED for allegedly remitting abroad over INR 9,700 crore of the INR 28,000 crore it received as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) since 2011. The ED carried out searches at the premises of a Bengaluru firm linked to the edtech giant on Saturday. On the other hand, the&nbsp;<em>Byju’s</em>&nbsp;has termed it a routine enquiry.</p>

‘Pathaan’ scripts' history marks a remarkable comeback for megastar Shahrukh Khan, Bollywood and for the Kashmir Valley.

Inside South Asia: Dream comeback for SRK, Bollywood & Kashmir

After a stupendous performance in the first two weeks, superstar Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan' seems unstoppable. Pathaan's success has breathed new life into Bollywood and it's also had a rather unexpected impact on someone who was not directly related to the blockbuster. Watch the full story here.

Shah Rukh Khan's doppelganger celebrates Pathaan's success

<p>Brazilian author Paulo Coelho recently congratulated 'friend' Shah Rukh Khan on the success of his latest film 'Pathaan'. On Thursday, Coelho took to Twitter to celebrate the success of 'Pathaan' which has reportedly earned over Rs 600 crore worldwide and continues to dominate the box office globally. The film helmed by Siddharth Anand features Deepika Padukone and John Abraham along with SRK.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Coelho reposted a video that SRK had shared a few days back of fans gathered outside his Mumbai residence Mannat. The superstar had thanked fans at the success of 'Pathaan'. Coelho shared the same video and praised Khan for being a great actor and recommended his followers to watch his 2010 film 'My Name Is Khan'.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Taking to Twitter, Paulo wrote, "King. Legend . Friend. But above all GREAT ACTOR ( for those who don’t know him in the West, I strongly suggest “My name is Khan- and I am not a terrorist”)."</p>

<p>SRK fans were excited to see such an endorsement of their favourite actor for a renowned author. One fan replied, "Wooww… and what a way to introduce to those who don’t know him." While another added, "Paulo thank you man you always stand by our king srk lots and lots of love (red heart emojis)."<br />
<br />
This is not the first time that the author has praised Shah Rukh. Back in 2017, Coelho first watched Karan Johar's directed 'My Name Is Khan' for the first time and was all praises for the actor and the film. The author had even stated that SRK's performance deserved an Oscar had it not been manipulated by Hollywood. &nbsp;Coelho had gone on Twitter to congratulate Shah Rukh on the seventh anniversary of the film. He also shared a screenshot of his Facebook post which stated,"His first (and only) movie that I watched (this year, even if it was released in 2008) was 'My Name is Khan'. And not only was the movie excellent, but SRK deserved an Oscar if Hollywood was not manipulated. He kindly offered to send the other titles - as you probably guess, it is not easy to find them in Switzerland."<br />
<br />
The gracious SRK had responded to the author's praise back then and Tweeted, "Thank u so much. My next journey is to try and meet u in person. Love and health to u."</p>
