Atlee Sensation. Jawan for Oscars. Director Atlee, the creative force behind the global box office sensation "Jawan," is setting his sights on the ultimate cinematic recognition—the Oscars. In a recent conversation, he expressed his aspiration to see his film achieve this prestigious accolade and even playfully mentioned discussing the idea with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
When inquired about his aspirations for the Oscars, Atlee responded enthusiastically, saying, "Of course, even 'Jawan' should aim for the Oscars if all the pieces fall into place. I believe that every filmmaker, every artist, every technician involved in cinema has their eyes on awards like the Golden Globes, Oscars, and National Awards. So, without a doubt, I would be thrilled to take 'Jawan' to the Oscars. Let's see how it unfolds. I think Mr. Khan will come across this interview, and I might just give him a call and ask, 'Sir, should we consider taking this film to the Oscars?'"
It's been just over a week since "Jawan" hit the screens, and its remarkable success continues to reign over both the global and domestic box office.
The film has now joined the exclusive ₹800 crore club worldwide. In India, "Jawan" is steadily approaching the ₹500 crore mark, having achieved the distinction of being the fastest Hindi film to cross the ₹400 crore milestone in the country.
