At the time Bollywood was going through a lean phase, SRK came up with the spy action thriller Pathaan, which gave huge relief to the industry. Pathaan is the first Hindi film to collect more than 500 crores nett. With Jawan, Shah Rukh added one more industry hit to his name.
The movie already broke the existing records in Bollywood and is on the verge of becoming the first Hindi film to join the 600 crores nett club. Jawan collected 584 crores nett from all languages, out of which 525 crores came from the Hindi version.
The movie collected a monstrous 1043.21 crores gross globally in 2023. The film’s performance is unaffected by new releases, and it is a clear sign that fans are adoring Red Chillies Entertainment’s presentation.
Shah Rukh Khan is the second Hindi actor to score two all-time biggest blockbusters in a calendar year after the legendary Raj Kapoor. With Dunki, he is eying to score the third industry hit, and if he does that, it will be next to impossible for other actors to repeat the feat.
