Talking about the same, the Superstar said, “I am thrilled to share that Jawan is the most watched film in India on Netflix . Releasing the extended version was our way of expressing gratitude to our fans for extending their unwavering love and support to the film. The overwhelming response we’ve received from Netflix audiences only reaffirms the brilliance of Indian Cinema. Jawan is not just a film, it’s a celebration of storytelling, passion, and the vibrant spirit of our cinema and I couldn’t be prouder of its success on Netflix.”

‘Jawan‘ is a Red Chillies Entertainment presentation directed by Atlee, produced by Gauri Khan, and co-produced by Gaurav Verma. The film was released worldwide in theatres on September 7th, 2023, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.

Jawan 2 on the cards?

Those, who have seen Jawan, have observed a reason behind the potential sequel of the pan-India biggie. It smartly drops about the second part in its conclusion where SRK’s character Azad receives an envelope about his next mission. Interestingly, it is delivered by a special appearance, which makes the speculation of a sequel stronger. Well, if it comes true, it will be interesting to see how the makers will present the second part of this larger-than-life thriller to the audience.

Jawan has unanimously garnered positive reviews from the cinegoers. Firstpost gave the film 4 stars and wrote, “Atlee, known to be a massy director, gives the audiences exactly what they want. He and also our favourite SRK knows exactly how to get the audiences back to the theatres. They provide what the audience demands, which is a true masala potboiler with a hidden meaning. I won’t say this was SRK’s best performance, Pathaan was undoubtedly better. But the finesse with which he carries his age is remarkable. Again, this is different too as he is portraying multiple characters.”
