Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan created a buzz among the audience and critics alike. A large section of the audience interpreted the film as a one loaded with political statements. At the press event of Jawan in Mumbai on Friday, Shah Rukh Khan summed up what Jawan means to him in his inimitable style. Shah Rukh Khan was joined by Deepika Padukone, Vijay Sethupathi, director Atlee on stage. Shah Rukh Khan said, “The essence of the film will come forward as we go along. But I want to tell you what Jawan means to all of us. Listen to it carefully. Genuinely I feel this – Jawan is a feeling which every Indian has. I think Jawan is an emotion, Jawan is an Indian soldier, Jawan is an Indian mother, Jawan is an Indian girl, Jawan as an Indian vigilante and you have to understand Jawan is many times weak as he is one of us and many times he is ready to fight. Jawan is many times wrong but Jawan many many times is also right. “
