New Delhi:

The Bollywood box office chart is currently dynamic as never before – Sunny Deol's Gadar 2 just displaced Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan from the top spot and SRK's latest release Jawan is fast catching up with both films. Jawan is still an "unstoppable force," according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh. The film made Rs 4.45 crore on Wednesday taking the total domestic box office earnings so far to Rs 519.69 crore, reported Mr Adarsh. Jawan, directed by Atlee, released on September 7 and has been destroying box office records ever since. It recently made Bollywood's fastest Rs 500 crore, beating Gadar 2's record by some days.

Jawan, co-starring Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi, recently announced a buy one-get one offer for weekday tickets, now a standard industry practice, which should give its numbers a boost. The film is expected to overtake both Pathaan and Gadar 2.

"Jawan remains an unstoppable force. Also, the Buy-1-Get-1 free ticket offer (Thursday to Saturday) should boost its biz. (Week 3) Friday 7.10 cr, Saturday 11.50 cr, Sunday 13.90 cr, Monday 4.90 cr, Tuesday 4.40 cr, Wednesday 4.45 cr. Total: Rs 519.69 cr. Hindi. India biz," posted Taran Adarsh.

Red Chillies Entertainment, which backed Jawan, in an Instagram post announced the “buy 1 get 1 free ticket offer” for Thursday, Friday and Saturday (September 28-September 30). Sharing a poster of SRK's dual-role – Vikram Rathod and Azad — the production house wrote, “Double dhamaaka. Single Daam. Jaise Azad ke saath Vikram Rathore… waise aapke saath koi bhi jaa sakta hai. Ek ticket khareedne par doosra ticket bilkul free.* 1 + 1 offer… Starting tomorrow. (Double enjoyment. Single price. Just like Azad has Vikram Rathod, anyone can go with you. If you buy one ticket, the other one is absolutely free) Enjoy #Jawan with your loved ones. In cinemas near you - in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.” Red Chillies Entertainment is co-owned by Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan. 

NDTV film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in his Jawan review, wrote, “On one level, Jawan is a fan service masala film. On another, it is a tale of revenge that is also a political statement, and a loud and clear one at that. Jawan ends with the hero looking straight into the camera - it is positioned in a way that represents the eye of the audience.”

Jawan also has Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Dutt in special appearances.
