The Atlee-directed film Jawan collected a record-breaking Rs 65.50 crore at the Indian box office on the first day of the release, according to Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh.
The film’s opening day collection was 19.09% higher than Shah Rukh Khan’s smash hit Pathaan.

Directed by Atlee and produced by SRK and Gauri Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment, Jawan released in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. The film also stars Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi and Deepika Padukone. Jawan managed to impress the audience and critics alike.
The film opened to stellar reviews. Film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film a 3.5 star rating in his review for NDTV and he wrote,
“Jawan hits the bull’s eye both as a movie that is out to entertain and a vehicle that demonstrates the power of a superstar endowed with a voice that is anything but ordinary.
“It (Jawan) manifests itself as much on the screen as it does outside its fictive confines.”
