There is huge expectations among the audience at large to witness Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan on the big screen – a fact proven by how the SRK cameo in Brahmastra has received ubiquitous praise, even by those who haven't particularly liked the film. So imagine, how much the public is yearning to witness Shah Rukh again on the big screen in a full-fledged role, after seeing him last that way back in 2018, in the disappointing Zero. Well, on that not, the Baadshah of Bollywood has Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki lined up for release in that order. And now, we've landed our hands on a feeler of what the plot of Jawan is possibly about.
A well-placed entertainment news source within the industry has exclusively apprised BollywoodLife that Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan is a heist thriller. Exciting right? So, how does the speculation of SRK having a cameo fit into this? Said source further claims that Jawan is apparently a heist-cum-revenge thriller, with Shah Rukh's older version supposedly being a part of a failed heist, and then years later, King Khan's son persona taking it upon himself to undertake said heist again. Double exciting, right?
