Shah Rukh Khan announced his new project on Friday it is super intriguing. SRK's next project is titled Jawan and it will be directed by Atlee. The teaser features SRK in a never-seen-before avatar, with his face partially covered. We get a glimpse of his look in the teaser, where a voice on the phone says "Good to go chief" after which SRK laughs for a while and says "Ready." Sharing the teaser, SRK wrote: "An action-packed 2023! Bringing Jawan to you, an explosive entertainer in cinemas 2nd June 2023. In Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada." The film will be produced by SRK's wife Gauri Khan.
Meanwhile, the film's director Atlee shared the teaser and he wrote: "Feeling emotional, excited and blessed. Grew up admiring you but never imagined that I would be directing you sir. Shah Rukh Khan and I proudly present to you Jawan. Releasing on 2nd June 2023, in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada."
