The anticipation for Shah Rukh Khan Jawan has reached a fever pitch and is constantly on the rise. It\u2019s just been a day since SRK dropped the latest intriguing poster revealing his 5 different looks. This has indeed elevated the ever-rising craze for the film and adding up more to it, SRK\u2019s Warriors FAN Club has decided to recreate his looks from the film while taking the promotions way ahead of what people have seen for superstars\u2019 last release Pathaan.<\/p>\n

Javed Shaikh, the founder of Shah Rukh Khan Warriors FAN Club, shared an exclusive insight about the same, \u201cLast time, we had put up 20,000 posters. This time, we plan to put up 50,000 posters in 50 cities. On August 15, we did charity as well as promotions in 30+ cities. We distributed food among the underprivileged and also provided notebooks to school and college students.\u201d<\/p>\n

Taha Jilani from Kannad, Aurangabad along with other fan members went bald just like SRK in Jawan. He further shared, \u201cWe were so excited to see Shah Rukh Khan sir\u2019s bald look in Jawan\u2019s Prevue that 4-5 people from our fan club, including me, decided to go bald. Later, 6-7 fans also got motivated and shaved their heads!\u201d<\/p>\n

Further while mentioning about the public reaction on his recreation of bald look, Taha said, \u201cLogon ko deewangi dikhti hai Khan saab ke liye. It\u2019s quite fun to go around the city with this look and put up posters. Even the onlookers enjoy watching us!\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWe go all out. Even in places where there are no cinemas, we are promoting Jawan.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mizan Sayani, who replicated the bandaged look of SRK was seen promoting the film in Ahmedabad Metro along with other fan members who also went around with their bandaged faces. Speaking about the same Mizan said, \u201cWe had done a screening of Jawan\u2019s Prevue the day it was launched. We loved sir\u2019s dance in the metro at the end of the Prevue. I told the team then that we should do a metro activity. Then one day, we put up the bandage on our face and entered a metro station.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mizan said that this campaign was an eye-opener for him and other fan club members, \u201cIt made us realize that Khan saab has so many more fans. The moment we entered the station, the police and the security staff got concerned. They asked us, \u2018Aap logon ko kya hua? Kya aapka accident hua hai?\u2019! We informed them that we were promoting Jawan and showed them sir\u2019s bandaged look. They clicked pictures with us and we invited them to watch the film\u2019s first day first show.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cThen we got into a train. A lot of women passengers were in our compartment. It was apt as Jawan is based on women empowerment. Some of the female members of our fan club gave them posters of the film and explained to them our activity. They expressed a desire to click pictures with us. We held the first day first show poster and clicked snaps with them. Then we went to a different compartment and interacted with more passengers. Some kids were also present and they loved our look. They told us that they loved Pathaan. Even senior citizens were present and they told us how much they love SRK. They were quite surprised to see us promoting the film in this manner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Javed Shaikh proudly said, \u201cI guarantee you that what we do for Khan saab and at such levels, no one can do. Some people often say that someone must be sponsoring us or it is a paid activity. But it\u2019s not true. We do it ourselves and invest money from our pockets. Hamara pyaar hi aisa hai Khan saab ke liye. Well-qualified people from IT and other fields who earn a package of Rs. 15 lakhs are also on the streets and putting up posters of Jawan. Sochiye kis level ka pyaar hai!\u201d<\/p>\n

Talking about plans, Javed said, \u201cThe moment the advance booking commences, we\u2019ll start booking tickets in cinemas where we\u2019ll be doing the celebrations. We are already prepping for the first-day first-show celebrations. We\u2019ll install a 50-foot poster, take out a rally etc.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thankfully, for SRK Fans, there\u2019s no negativity surrounding Jawan, unlike Pathaan. Mizan Sayani revealed, \u201cWe faced some issues during Pathaan. In Ahmedabad, some groups tore posters of Pathaan, including the ones that we had put up. We held meetings with the police before the first day first show. My family members were also concerned. We were hoping that viewers come in full force and that they wouldn\u2019t face any issues.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, it was a grand success. A lot of media also covered our celebrations. Their headlines were \u2018Shah Rukh ke fans Bajrang Dal par huye bhaari\u2019!\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cWith Jawan, there\u2019s zero problem. And we don\u2019t know if such a film will ever come again. Hence, we are going full out.\u201d<\/p>\n

SRK Universe:<\/p>\n

Yash Paryani, the co-founder of the biggest Shah Rukh Khan fan club, SRK Universe, shared his plans with us, \u201cFor Pathaan, we had screenings and events in 200 cities. This time, we have gone past the figure of 200. For Jawan, we are organizing screenings in 300 cities and counting. That\u2019s roughly 10 cities in every state. We have figured out the major cinemas that are situated even in smaller towns and will be conducting our events there. Also, since Jawan is a Pan-India film, we have also targeted Southern cities compared to Pathaan. There, our celebrations will be full massy, just the way it is for the South films!\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cThe 60-feet cutout of Shah Rukh sir will be there even this time. In some places, we have put up 40-50 feet posters already. In Mumbai, due to the permissions, we\u2019ll be able to install only a day before release. We have also ordered lion rings, T-shirts, pants, masks etc. as special merchandise.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yash also stated, \u201cOur fan clubs have branches in 60 countries. I don\u2019t think our films even release in so many countries. The first day first show and all the major promotional campaigns will be held in these foreign countries too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last time, SRK Universe organized screenings in Mumbai\u2019s iconic single-screen complex, Gaiety-Galaxy. Yash Paryani, on this, exulted, \u201cWe\u2019 will have the first day first shows not just in Gaiety but also in Ghatkopar and neighboring cities like Navi Mumbai, Badlapur, Kalyan etc.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cDuring the release of Gadar 2, we put up the cutouts and standees of Jawan in many important theatres across the country.\u201d He also said, \u201cEven in London, we had Jawan-themed boat parties. We branded the boat with Jawan\u2019s posters. It was a big success.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s not all. He revealed, \u201cSome special plans are being made. We\u2019ll unveil once it gets confirmed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two weeks ago, SRK Universe celebrated the 10th anniversary of Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s blockbuster Chennai Express (2013). Yash Paryani explained, \u201cWe held Chennai Express\u2019s screening in 55 cities. It was a promotional activity as the film had a connection with Jawan. Just like Jawan, Chennai Express also had a South angle and featured Priyamani. We played Jawan\u2019s Prevue before the film. The reaction videos went viral.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Jawan\u2019 is a Red Chillies Entertainment presentation directed by Atlee, produced by Gauri Khan, and co-produced by Gaurav Verma. The film will release worldwide in theatres on September 7th, 2023, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
