On Wednesday, Shah Rukh Khan attended Jawan’s grand pre-release event. The event was held in Chennai, and the film’s editor, Ruben, shared some interesting behind-the-scenes stories. Ruben revealed that Shah Rukh graciously encouraged him to sacrifice his own scenes in order to protect those of his co-stars as the film’s promotion began.
Shah Rukh, who stars in the film, made a grand entrance at the audio launch. Atlee, the film’s director, also made a stylish entrance on stage. Jawan also features pivotal performances by Vijay Sethupathi and Nayanthara.
Ruben mentioned Shah Rukh’s graciousness while speaking to the audience. He stated,“I thank Shah Rukh Khan for trusting us. Not just one, but a whole bus of Tamilians landed in the North. It needs some guts to do that. Also, as a human, he is a great… For example, at the editing table, he told me to cut the portions of him and spare the scenes of others.”
Ruben also discussed Vijay’s character in Jawan, claiming that watching the actor perform gave him sleepless nights. “I love Vijay Sethupathi… Most importantly the films where he is the villain. In Jawan, he has played a character which is death personified. His role gave me sleepless nights.”
Thanks to Atlee, the well-known film editor shared that even though he shot in different locations across the country, away from his home state of Tamil Nadu, he never felt truly alone. “I am not good in Hindi and most of the technicians also don’t. But when I went there to shoot in some unknown locations, everyone around me was Tamil on the sets. We should thank Atlee for making it feel like home,” he said.
Director Atlee also lauded Vijay Sethupathi, saying, “There’s no one out there like you. No hero has the guts to do what you do. You don’t care about anything and keep walking forward and we follow you… No one will realise the heights you are reaching now. They will all know in retrospect.”
Jawan is set to release on September 7.
