Jawan kicks up a political storm
It has just been one day since the Atlee directorial, which has nothing to do with politics, has been released, and the movie has already started a political storm.
What is Jawan about?
As revealed in the trailer, the film stars SRK in many avatars. He is a vigilante, a soldier, a romantic hero and even a messiah of the poor, but all he is trying to do is take on a nexus of corrupt politicians and businessmen. The film revolves around themes including corruption, farmer suicides, the healthcare system, and more.

Is BJP rattled after Jawan's release?
Why bhakts and BJP IT cell are rattled over SRK movie jawan?
¡ª Dr Nimo Yadav (@niiravmodi) September 8, 2023
Jawan promotes harmony and brotherhood.
Jawan asks every Indian to eradicate corruption and stop casteism.
Jawan asks every Indian not to vote on the basis of caste and religion.
Why BJP IT CELL is taking it as a¡
Not us, but Trinamool leader Saken Gokhale thinks so. Taking a screenshot of BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya's tweet in which he mentioned how the success of Gadar 2 reflects the mood of the nation, Saket Ghokhale tweeted, "BJP is at a point where it's too rattled to understand the mood of the nation. Wait for the box office records that #Jawan & King @iamsrk are going to create. That'll tell you the mood of the nation ?"
Is AAP promoting Jawan?
This one dialogue mouthed by Shah Rukh Khan in the film has become a political diatribe. It was first tweeted by AAP's official Twitter handle.

The tweet reads, "What @ArvindKejriwal ji has been saying for years, today #Jawan SRK has also said that in the film. Jawan's Dialogue: "Instead of voting for fear, money, caste, religion, community, ask questions to those who came to ask for your vote. - Ask him what will you do for me in the next 5 years? If someone in the family falls ill, what will you do for his treatment? - What will you do to get me a job? What will you do to take the country forward? Now listen Kejriwal ji's speech."
The video below has the much-talked-about dialogue.
#Jawan talks about the importance of Healthcare and Education in Political disclosure...

Jawan movie mein ek dialogue hai SRK ka.
Election se pehele yeh corrupt party aayengi paise dekar vote khareedne. Mana mat karna rakh lena, par vote usi party ko dena jo bachho ki education aur healthcare ki baat kare. ???

Congress supporters are using the same dialogue to take a dig at other parties.
Just watched the #Jawan movie .
¡ª Surbhi (@SurrbhiM) September 7, 2023
Throughout the movie SRK has expressed his support for the Congress party by displaying the Congress symbol.
SRK seems to convey a message critical of the current government through his brilliant acting .

In reality, Jawan might not have any political inclination, but it's interesting to see how the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer has caused political uproar.
