The latest action thriller from SRK, which charts the emotional journey of a man determined to right the wrongs in society, has audiences here going absolutely crazy.
In particular, his character’s plea to not cast votes based on caste or religion in the film’s final monologue has resonated with viewers.

Jawan, which was directed by Atlee Kumar, also features Deepika Padukone, Sanjay Dutt, Vijay Sethupathi, and Nayanthara.
