Atlee, who has gone on to become one of the biggest and most sought-after names in Tamil cinema, is now becoming a household name across India ever since he was announced to be making his directorial debut in 'Bollywood Baadshah' Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan. Produced under the Red Chillies Entertainment banner, the upcoming film touted to be an intense action thriller is scheduled to open in cinemas on September 7 and will come out in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages. Movie buffs and film aficionados are now looking to witness Atlee's prowess in Hindi with Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan after conquering Tamil cinema with 'Thalapathy' Vijay-starrers like Theri (2016), Mersal (2017), and Mersal (2019).
Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, which marks Atlee's debut in Bollywood, is also set to pave the entry of leading Tamil talents like 'Lady Superstar' Nayanthara, composer Anirudh Ravichander, cinematographer GK Vishnu, and editor Ruben in Hindi cinema. The film is carrying a tremendous amount of excitement as social media has been abuzz with talk about the film being made on a massive scale and scope unlike any in Hindi cinema in recent years. Jawan will also see Tamil superstar Vijay Sethupathi as the antagonist and fans are looking forward to the actor coming out with yet another powerful performance after he impressed everyone in the smash hit Amazon Prime Video web series, Farzi, earlier this year.
