‘Didn't see this side of you at KKR’ – Shah Rukh Khan left impressed with Dinesh Karthik’s Jawan review

Indian film megastar Shah Rukh Khan was left impressed with veteran wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik’s review on the former’s latest action flick ‘Jawan’. Notably, Shah Rukh’s ‘Jawan’ hit the theatres on September 7 and is relishing a glorious run at the box office as his film has minted INR 287 crore (approx) in mere four days. 

With this, Karthik shared his thoughts as he was taken aback by the ‘scale and grandeur’ of the film. Following Dinesh's review, the megastar was left impressed with the former's ‘critical’ version as he had not seen cricketer's this side at Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

“Wow DK (Dinesh Karthik) you are quite the film buff!! Didn’t get to see this side of u during KKR times. Really happy u enjoyed the film and give my love to Dipika (Pallikal)!!! And if you are free go watch it again after a few weeks…. Always need u as a finisher!!” shared Shah Rukh on his ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) handle.

“#JAWAN SCALE and GRANDEUR. I'm sure it will become the Highest-grossing INDIAN movie ever! What an amazing effort by @Atlee_dir to bring @iamsrk in so many avatars, my fav being Vikram Rathore, style and charisma like no one else ever has seen from SRK!” read one excerpt from Dinesh’s review on ‘X’.

Meanwhile, the cricketer is presently in Sri Lanka, providing updates on the Asia Cup 2023. Speaking about the national team, Rohit Sharma and Co. progressed to the Super Four stage of the ACC event and will be gunning to push further for a spot in the summit clash of the competition.

The Men in Blue got off to a brilliant start against arch-rivals Pakistan in their first match of the knockout round on Sunday, September 10, scoring 147/2 in 24.1 overs. However, as persistent showers poured at the venue in Colombo, the match is set to resume on the reserve day – Monday, September 11. Assuming the match happens on the reserve day, Rohit and Co. will be bound to play successive games as they will square off against Sri Lanka on Tuesday, September 12.
