Four days have passed since the release of Shah Rukh Khan's film Jawan in theatres, and the movie continues to captivate audiences and perform well at the box office. In the movie, Khan takes on a prominent role alongside an ensemble of female actors. Recently, when a fan inquired about the abundance of female characters in the film, the actor responded with his trademark wit.
Shah Rukh Khan, despite his hectic schedule, has been making time to engage with his fans on X (previously known as Twitter). On September 9th, he responded to fan messages as usual, but there was one particular question that didn't sit quite right with the superstar.
Shah Rukh Khan On Female Cast In Jawan
A curious fan, noticing the significant number of female characters in Jawan, asked the actor, "Itni ladkiyan kyun hai sir film mein (Why are there so many women in the film)? Known for his quick wit, Shah Rukh Khan offered a fitting response.
He stated, "Yeh sab kyun ginn raha hai... mere looks ginn na! Keep love and respect in your heart, and maa aur beti ka samman karo...aur aage badho (Why are you counting all this? Count the number of looks I have in the film. Keep love and respect in your heart, honour mothers and daughters, and move forward."

Priyamani Talks About Filming Zinda Banda
Moreover, talking about the Zinda Banda song from the film, actor Priyamani has shared insights into the filming of the grand song sequence in the movie Jawan. She revealed how Khan made sure she was positioned next to him while dancing. The two had previously collaborated on the chartbuster track One Two Three Four Get On The Dance Floor in the film Chennai Express.
During an interview with Connect FM Canada, Priyamani explained that during the initial choreography rehearsals, she was placed behind Khan. However, when the superstar arrived on set, he specifically looked around to locate Priyamani and noticed that she was positioned behind him.
Priyamani further disclosed that Shah Rukh Khan instructed the choreographer Shobi Master and director Atlee that she should stand beside him. He referred to her as his "dance teacher" since their collaboration in Chennai Express and mentioned that, in case he forgot his steps, he would follow her lead.
