The 56-year-old actor, whose last theatrical release was 2018 film 'Zero', said 'Jawan' is a universal story that goes beyond languages and geographies. "Credit goes to Atlee for creating this unique film, which has also been a fantastic experience for me as I love action films! The teaser is the just tip of the iceberg and gives a glimpse into what's to come," Khan said in a statement.

Atlee said with the film he wants to give viewers an exceptional experience. "I want to give the audiences an exceptional experience, an event which they all can enjoy together and who better to deliver it than Shah Rukh Khan himself, presented like never before," he said.

'Jawan' is produced by Khan's production company Red Chillies Entertainment. The film will release across five languages -- Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada in theatres across the globe on June 2, 2023.

Khan, whose last release was 2018 film 'Zero', has a busy slate ahead with Yash Raj Films' 'Pathaan', scheduled to be released on January 25, and Rajkumar Hirani-directed 'Dunki', set to hit the theatres in December next year.
