Shah Rukh Khan has an exciting lineup of films for 2023. He will be making his comeback on the big screen in January with Pathaan, which will be followed by Jawan and Dunki. For Jawan, the actor has collaborated with director Atlee and actress Nayanthara for the first time. However, now it seems that the film has landed in legal trouble. If recent reports are to be believed, a Tamil producer named Manickam Narayanan filed a complaint with the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) accusing the makers of Jawan of plagiarism.
The producer claimed that SRK’s film is a copy of Vijayakanth’s 2006 film Perarasu. Times of India reported that the TFPC will investigate the complaint after November 7, 2022. Manickam Narayanan reportedly owns the rights to the story.

Jawan is produced by Gauri Khan and is directed by Atlee. It will hit theatres on June 2, 2023, in five Indian languages – Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
