Shah Rukh Khan’s cinematic masterpiece, “Jawan,” helmed by the visionary director Atlee, has triumphed in spectacular fashion, surging past the remarkable milestone of ₹1000 crore in worldwide box office earnings. This monumental achievement was realized within a mere 18 days of the film’s release.
Featuring Shah Rukh Khan alongside the exceptional talents of Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in pivotal roles, “Jawan” has left an indelible mark on the global film industry. The announcement of this awe-inspiring feat was shared by Red Chillies Entertainment on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, with the resounding proclamation, “History in the maKING ft. Jawan! Have you watched it yet?”
In an outpouring of gratitude, director Atlee expressed, “God is so kind to us. Thank you all…” This cinematic triumph marks Shah Rukh Khan’s second entry into the exclusive ₹1000 crore club, following the monumental success of “Pathaan.”
A tantalizing glimpse of Shah Rukh Khan’s portrayal as Vikram Rathore, alongside his son Azad in “Jawan,” was unveiled in a captivating video clip, bearing the impressive insignia of “₹1004.92 crore worldwide gross.” Enthusiastic fans have speculated that the film’s collaboration with the musical genius Anirudh Ravichander will likely propel its earnings even further, with predictions soaring as high as ₹1500 crore.
This extraordinary accomplishment solidifies Shah Rukh Khan’s unparalleled distinction as the first Indian actor to achieve two ₹1000 crore grossers in a single year, a testament to his enduring charisma and global appeal.
