SRK new poster of 'Jawan,' interacts with fans on Twitter

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan on Thursday released a new poster of Jawan that shows him in a bald avatar and during a Q&A session on Twitter, the actor said he loved his new look.

Shah Rukh answered fan queries related to the Atlee directorial as part of an #AskSRK session, days after the makers released a short clip, dubbed as 'prevue' of the much-awaited movie.

When one of the fans asked why he didn't share a poster of his second release of 2023, Shah Rukh promised that he will do so as soon as the online interaction ends.

And, the Pathaan star kept his word.

"As promised sending out the poster for the film and of course lots and lots of love. See you all in the cinemas," he captioned the poster of Jawan, in which he can be seen in a bald look with shades, brandishing a gun.

Intrigued fans tweeted about the actor's various avatars as shown in the 'prevue': his face almost covered with bandages, one in clean shave, his face half-covered with a grey mask and a bald look in others.

After an admirer praised his bald look, Shah Rukh said he liked it too.

When a fan asked what is the secret to his sexy looks in Jawan at the age of 57, the actor said: "Sexy is what sexy does not how one looks. Just do good that’s all."

In response to a puzzled fan who asked if it was really him behind all the bandages, Shah Rukh quipped, "Either it's me or my mummy."

According to the 'prevue', Shah Rukh's character in the film is aided by an army of women in his mission and the actor said his wife "loves the fact that it shows a lot of women power".

SRK also shared that his youngest child AbRam loved the title music, especially the whistle, composed by Anirudh Ravichander.

He was all praise for director Atlee, known for films such as Theri, Bigil, and Mersal.

"Atlee is just too cool. Hard working and with a one point agenda to make me look good in the film. He is superb. I wish him and Priya and Meer the best in life," he added.

Shah Rukh also revealed that he watched Atlee's earlier films and several actors from South cinema to prepare for the role.

"I watched a lot of films of Atlee. Vijay sir. Allu Arjun ji. Rajni sir. Yash and loads of other stars to understand the language of expression for the world that was being created. And yes then prepped for my own character too," said the actor.

Fans have loved a particular scene from the first glimpse of the movie which shows the star dancing to the classic Hemant Kumar song Beqaraar Karke Humein from 1962 movie Bees Saal Baad in a metro coach.

SRK said the sequence was Atlee's idea and he loved it. "I also love it with the dance and all. Too much magic in the idea I think," he added.
