Shah Rukh Khan On Fan's Claim That Jawan Has 'Fake Box Office Numbers': ‘Chupp Baith Aur...'

Since September 7 release, Shah Rukh Khan and Atlee’s film Jawan has broken multiple box office records. It has already joined the Rs 1000 crore club globally. Even so, the movie shows no signs of slowing down in making an impact on Bollywood. As the film crossed the box office milestone, the superstar indulged in a fan-favourite #AskSRK session. From addressing Jawan’s fake collection rumours to asking his fans not to talk about his 2018 flop film Zero, Shah Rukh Khan’s replies are winning over the internet.

As Jawan entered the Rs 1000 crore club, an online user asked Shah Rukh Khan on X, “What about fake collection numbers of Jawaan? So many news that produces are spreading fake collection numbers.” To this, the megastar replied, “Chupp baith aur ginta reh…bas!!! Don’t get distracted in counting!!! #Jawan.”

Another netizen pointed out that his recent film, which has earned Rs 1000 crore has a lot of Zeros in it. “ir 1000 crores have 10 zeroes…i realised after box-office collection of #Jawan #AskSRK have u?” wrote the user. This reminded Shah Rukh Khan of his 2018 release zero , which did not perform well commercially. The actor replied, ““Yaar yeh Zero Zero mat yaad dilao abhi….ha ha.”

Meanwhile, in order to celebrate the success of the film, which crossed this massive milestone globally, Shah Rukh Khan announced a special treat for his fans.
