An emotional journey of a prison warden, driven by a personal vendetta while keeping up to a promise made years ago, recruits inmates to commit outrageous crimes that shed light on corruption and injustice, in an attempt to get even with his past, and that leads him to an unexpected reunion.
I had a lot of fun watching Jawan. It is a well-made and entertaining action drama thriller film that tackles some important social issues. The action sequences are top-notch, the cinematography is stunning, and the performances are all excellent, especially those of Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Sethupathi.
I particularly enjoyed the film's social message. It is important to highlight these issues in popular media, and Jawan does so in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.
Jawan contains all of the massy elements that the audience anticipated for. Other flaws can be overlooked (You know what I am talking about) because it does not bore anyone from the beginning to the end. However, as the film contained more massy and over the top themes, I believe Vijay Sethupathi's character was underutilized. The final fight between SRK and Vijay Sethupathi should have been depicted more magnificently.
