24th May 2023, Mumbai: In the action drama Jawaan, directed by Atlee, Shah Rukh appears in a role that has never been seen before, together with Sanya Malhotra, Nayanthara, and DeepikaPadukone.
One of the busiest actors in recent years is Sanya Malhotra. In less than ten years of her acting career, the actor has collaborated with some of the most well-known figures in the business, including Aamir Khan, Nitesh Tiwari, Anurag Basu, and others. The actor is now finally living out another dream, one that I’m sure most of us have had: working with Shah Rukh Khan. The much-anticipated Jawaan will feature SRK and the Dangal actor.
Shah Rukh appears in the action drama Jawaan, directed by Atlee, in a hitherto unseen avatar. During filming, rumoursspread that Sanya would play a crucial role in the movie, in addition to Nayanthara, Deepika Padukone, and SRK. However, Sanya, who prides herself on being a professional, decided against saying anything.
Sanya Malhotra chose to discuss Jawaan and was glad that she could now talk about it openly in an exclusive interview with Koimoi prior to the premiere of her film Kathal: A Jackfruit Mystery. The actor also responded when fans referred to her as a “joothi” (lie) for persistently denying that she was in the movie. Continue reading to get all you need to know about the same.
Sanya Malhotra responded, “I am not a liar, I am a professional who was told not to reveal anything, and until the last moment I didn’t, I am professional,” in our exclusive interview when we pointed out how she had lied to us about Jawaan and then gone on to shoot with Shah Rukh Khan the very next day.
She added, “I can’t believe that I am making a film with him and the fact that now I can talk about it, talk about merely being a part of it. I can’t believe that I am in the same frame as Shah Rukh Khan and also playing a significant role. When I shared the photo on my Instagram account, many people were shocked and at the same time, were so delighted, and that’s only because it’s Shah Rukh Khan. I am grateful and excited all at once, and it also makes me so glad to see that people. Working alongside him had always been a dream of mine, and I am now experiencing that dream. I believe that the reasons I am so thankful and delighted are because I am Jawaan’s pet and because I got to work with Atlee and SRK.”
Sanya Malhotra continued by describing how fans were shocked when she revealed the revised Jawaan release date, and some even accused her of lying. “It’s a relief to be able to express all of this in an interview, and I promise not to lie to you or anyone else about it. Because of statements like ‘toh itne time se to aapjhoot bol rahi thi (so you were lying all this while)’, I have upset a lot of people. I wasn’t lying; Nahi mein jhoot nahi bol rahi thi.”
“Meri Pehli Movie My first movie was Dangal, and I didn’t even tell my friends about it until it was announced in the news. Dangal thi and mere doston ko tak pata nahin tha jabtak wohnews item bahar nhi aya. As a professional, I won’t inform anyone in public.” Sanya Malhotra continued, “The news was already out, and many were guessing, but it was my obligation to not tell it to anyone. Now, however, I am glad to announce that I am a member of Jawaan to everyone.”
The new release date for Jawaan, which features Shah Rukh Khan, Nayanthara, Sanya Malhotra, and Deepika Padukone in a surprise cameo, is September 7, 2023.
