Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has announced that his upcoming action movie "Jawan" will now release on September 7th, 2023, instead of June 2nd, 2023. Directed by Atlee and produced by Gauri Khan under Red Chillies Entertainment, the film features Shah Rukh Khan, Vijay Sethupathi, and Nayanthara in the lead roles.

The actor expressed relief that the team can now complete the film with ease, saying that it takes time and patience to deliver something worth the audience's time. During an #AskSRK session on Twitter, the actor shared his experience of working on "Jawan" and collaborating with Atlee, Vijay Sethupathi, and Nayanthara.

He called it a new genre for him, and said that he learned a lot from his co-stars. He also praised music composer Anirudh Ravichander and shared that he had to lip sync a few song lines in Tamil for the film.

In response to a fan's question about investing in VFX-heavy films like "Jawan," Shah Rukh said that he believes in creating an event worth the audience's time and money. He further added that his approach to approaching a character is spiritual and respectful.

The makers also unveiled a new poster of the film, which sees Shah Rukh covered in bandages. When asked about his children's reaction to his look in the movie, he said that his son AbRam thinks he looks like a mummy.
