After fans expressed disappointment over his absence from the recent poster of his upcoming film Jawan, actor Shah Rukh Khan shared a new photo with his fans. The film, directed by Atlee, is set to release in theaters on September 7, after its initial release date was pushed back from June of this year.
Shah Rukh Khan’s new monochrome photo features him showcasing his messy hair, which appears to be a part of his look from the movie Jawan. Although the actor is standing next to a wall, not much of the surroundings are visible.
Sharing the photo, Shah Rukh told fans, “Ok thank u, everyone. Some said my face is not visible in the #Jawan poster….so putting my face here….don’t tell the director & producer. Love u all & hope to meet u in theatres on #7thSeptember2023 love u and bye.”
Earlier, he shared a new teaser of Jawan on Instagram. It was a poster that showed someone in a heavily bandaged avatar, seemingly Shah Rukh but his face wasn’t visible. He is seen jumping from a height with a spear-like weapon in his hand. The post read, “#Jawan #7thSeptember2023.”
Jawan will release in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu worldwide. In the film, Nayanthara plays the female lead. Sunil Grover, Priyamani, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanya Malhotra, and Riddhi Dogra will also be seen in pivotal roles. Shah Rukh’s Pathaan co-stars Deepika Padukone, Vijay, Sanjay Dutt, and Allu Arjun are also said to have special appearances in the film. A few days ago, some pictures of Shah Rukh and Deepika from the film sets leaked online.
Soon after, Jawan’s new release date was announced, Shah Rukh conducted an Ask Me Anything session on Twitter. He posted, “Just because I think I would like to….let’s do #AskSRK for half an hour or so.”
When someone wrote to him, “Why did Jawan get delayed?”, the actor answered, “Takes time and patience to make something worthy for audiences.” “Everybody was working without a break and pushing themselves…so a bit relieved that all can do their job with more ease now,” he also added.
