Fans around the world are celebrating as Shah Rukh Khan finally unveiled the teaser for his forthcoming film Jawan, which will be released on Thursday, September 7. After the trailer was shown on the world’s tallest skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, a fan in the United States had it displayed on the Times Square Billboard in New York City.
The approximately 3-minute-long clip has Shah Rukh Khan in a variety of looks as he plays a dual role. It starts with him hijacking a metro with his crew of six women, who are played by Priyamani, Sanya Malhotra, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Girija Oak, Lehar Khan, and Aaliyah Qureishi.

Nayanthara, who co-stars with Khan, plays a cop tasked with tracking down Khan’s vigilante persona. Vijay Sethupathi is rumoured to play a merciless villain, while Deepika Padukone is said to play Khan’s love interest and mother. Sunil Grover and Ridhi Dogra can also be seen in the video.
The Jawan trailer promises a crowd-pleaser with lines like ‘Bete ko haath lagane se pehle baap se baat kar’ (Before touching the son, talk to his father).’
The prevue also had the dialogue “Main kaun hoon. Kaun nahi. Pata nahi. Maa ko kiya wada hoon. Ya adhoora ik iraada hoon. Main achha hoon. Bura hoon. Punya hoon yaa paap hoon. Ye khud se puchna. Kyunki main bhi aap hoon.”
