New Delhi: Although their on-screen union in Dunki is still months away, Shah Rukh Khan and Rajkumar Hirani have already begun to get along because of another project, Jawan. Shah Rukh has disclosed that the Dunki filmmaker was the first to contact him following the release of the Jawan trailer online.
Shah Rukh is the star of the mass action blockbuster Jawan, which is being directed by Atlee, who is best known for the massively successful Tamil films Theri, Mersal, and Bigil. The movie’s teaser was unveiled on Thursday to enthusiastic reviews, and Hirani shared these sentiments.
