Devansh Sharma | Hindustan Times: n/a ⇨ 2/5
Shah Rukh Khan marries personal with political seamlessly in most films, but Jawan isn't one of them ... Full Review

Monika Rawal Kukreja | Hindustan Times: n/a ⇨ 3.5/5
A massy, meaningful actioner ... Full Review

Renuka Vyavahare | Times of India: 3.5/5
You will be reminded of Money Heist, Squid Game, The Dark Knight Rises, old Hindi songs and The Lion King but topping it all is a heady mix of SRK-Atlee tadka ... Full Review

Proma Khosla | indieWire: n/a ⇨ 3.5/5
Jawan sees Khan teaming up with Tamil writer and director Atlee in a gloriously convoluted story of family, activism, and revenge. It’s violent, it’s insane, and it’s an absolute rollercoaster ... Full Review

Alan Ng | Film Threat: 8.5/10 ⇨ 4.25/5
Get yourself into the theaters, exercise those subtitle muscles, and be entertained by the intense and wild ride that is Jawan ... Full Review

Simon Abrams | RogerEbert.com: 2.5/4 ⇨ 3.5/5
“Jawan” will probably delight Khan’s established fans, and maybe uninitiated viewers, too, if only because he’s comfortably playing the hits, now with somewhat greater conviction and a little more polish ... Full Review

Rahul Desai | Film Companion: n/a ⇨ 3.5/5
Directed by Atlee, this action thriller is one of the most enjoyable, pulpy, ditzy and progressive entertainers in recent memory ... Full Review

Rohan Naahar | The Indian Express: n/a ⇨ 3/5
Shah Rukh Khan and Atlee's messy homage to comic book movies combines the politics of A Wednesday with the theatricality of V for Vendetta ... Full Review

Shubhra Gupta | The Indian Express: 3.5/5
Fashioned as an unabashed massy entertainer, Jawan slips in strong political messaging at every opportunity, making it a film which is very much of the moment ... Full Review

The New Indian Express: 2.5/5
Jawan is shiny, bright, and expensive, but ultimately—and as often is the case with anything shiny, bright, and expensive—devoid of soul ... Full Review

Saibal Chatterjee | NDTV: 3.5/5
Packed with all the ingredients that you would expect in a high-octane action film, Jawan is a strikingly meta vehicle in which a star communicates directly with his fan base and holds forth on themes that are crying out to be addressed ... Full Review

Bollywood Hungama: 4.5/5
On the whole, JAWAN is a mass entertainer at its best with superlative performances, thrilling and clapworthy moments and largerthanlife action sequences ... Full Review

Umesh Punwani | Koimoi: 3/5
What’s Good: Anything and everything that has Shah Rukh Khan. What’s Bad: Anything and everything that doesn’t have Shah Rukh Khan ... Full Review

Firstpost: 4/5
Jawan is a socio-political film with a fun twist. And may King Khan always remain Jawan and continue with his good work ... Full Review

India Today: 3.5/5
But where Jawan stands out from the others is in its treatment and execution. Shah Rukh moulds himself to become the medium for Atlee’s blockbuster screen vision and the camera plays with the actor like a muse with his mentor every time he walks into a frame ... Full Review

Shilajit Mitra | The Hindu: n/a ⇨ 3/5
An elaborate but persuasive action film from director Atlee ... Full Review

Rediff: 4.5/5

The Week: 4/5
Three and a half hours of ‘Jawan’ offers full entertainment and more. There are takeaway lessons, advice, emotions, humour, dance and loads of drama ... Full Review

Times Now News: 4/5
Slick action sequences, paired with romance, filial affections and some amazing music makes Jawan a perfect watch. That, paired with a double dose of Shah Rukh Khan is well worth the money ... Full Review

Shomini Sen | WIONews: n/a ⇨ 4/5
Jawan has all the elements of a quintessential Bollywood blockbuster. Whistle-inducing dialogues and action sequences, a credible plot, woman power, foot-tapping music, a bevy of stars, and of course Khan himself ... Full Review

Great Andhra: 2.75/5 ⇨ 3/5
Jawan is a typical action masala movie that draws inspiration from various South Indian films. However, Shah Rukh Khan's charisma, compelling performance, and the film's grand presentation with a fast-paced screenplay make it worth a watch, despite its familiar elements ... Full Review

Khaleej Times: 3/5
Jawan sees SRK in action mode, almost as if his earlier film Pathaan consumed a year’s supply of steroids. It’s a superstar vehicle that celebrates the charm and enduring appeal of Khan and on that metric, it succeeds wildly. He is a joy to watch ... Full Review

PinkVilla: 4/5
Jawan packs a solid punch with action, drama, emotion and scale packaged to perfection in the screenplay by Atlee. It’s driven by Shah Rukh Khan like never before in a once-in-a-lifetime kind of heroic characters of Azad and Vikram Rathore ... Full Review

Outlook India: 4/5
Jawan is without a doubt a full paisa vasool. Shah Rukh Khan’s swagger is unmatchable. In an action avatar, he has nailed it not just in one but two roles ... Full Review

Mike McCahill | The Guardian: 3/5
With flair, Khan plays a godly badass, dandyish army vet and a sweetheart with a prospective stepdaughter in an undisciplined showcase of his talents ... Full Review

123 Telugu: 3.5/5
Jawan is a well-made commercial entertainer that has all the elements to please the audience and Shah Rukh Khan fans. There are pulse-pounding moments, high-octane action scenes, electrifying soundtracks, and some stunning visuals which should be sufficient to set the box office on fire ... Full Review

Empire Online: 3.5/5
While some might find the tonal shifts jarring, one can’t fault Jawan’s ability to partner a strong social-justice message with crowd-pleasing action (and dance) sequences ... Full Review

Jagran: n/a ⇨ 4/5
Shah Rukh Khan Stands Class Apart In This Electrifying Action Entertainer Blended With Iconic Moments ... Full Review
