Jawan opened with Rs. 90 crores approx at the Indian box office yesterday. The Hindi version of the Shah Rukh Khan starrer accounted for Rs. 78.50 crores (Rs. 65 crores Nett) while another Rs. 11.50 crores (Rs. 9.25 crores Nett) came from the Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions. This places it as the fourth highest-grossing first-day film in Indian cinema history, just behind the three centurions, Baahubali 2, RRR and KGF 2. 

Shah Rukh Khan made an explosive comeback with Pathaan earlier this year after a nearly five-year sabbatical.

Now, SRK has come up with another action thriller Jawan which was released across theatres on September 7th to a positive response. Recently, Aaliyah Qureishi opened up about her experience of working with Vijay Sethupathi.

Shah Rukh Khan proved once again that he is the undisputable King of Bollywood, as his latest film Jawan set a new record for the highest opening day collections. The film released in theaters yesterday, and videos of fans dancing their heart out in packed cinema halls went viral on social media. Apart from the action-packed scenes, and the talented cast’s performances, certain dialogues from Jawan have been garnering a lot of attention. One of them includes a monologue from Shah Rukh, in which he is seen encouraging voters to ask important questions before casting their vote.

Shah Rukh Khan led Jawan, directed by Atlee Kumar and co-starring Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone, Sanjay Dutt and others has created history on day 1 at the Indian box office.

Pathaan on day 1 had collected slightly over Rs 55 crores and Jawan has taken a comfortable over Rs 8 crore lead. Pathaan released on a non-holiday Wednesday while Jawan has released on Janmashtami.
