A satisfying end to an epic show . Had lowered my expectation after a dismal last episode of season 2 .

Good one ...but the Indian adaptation is better ...Khel Khel Mein

Before you read the stars are 4.5 /5. Inc that provision Is not there it’s rounded to upper level - for SRK sake ! Ah, 'Jawaan,' the spicy curry of a film that's got all the right masala for both South cinema buffs and Shahrukh Khan super-fans. As one myself, I'm practically in movie nirvana here, folks! If 'Pathan' was the appetizer, 'Jawaan' is the main course that leaves you loosening your belt. Now, let's do some SRK-to-SRK comparison. While 'Pathan' had the eye-popping locales and chart-busting tunes, it faltered in editing and action like a gymnast who can't stick the landing. But 'Jawaan'? Oh, this movie's got its editing so tight, you'd think it's wearing Spanx. The action scenes? A rollercoaster that mostly hits the highs, with only a few dips. The real marvel? The Double SRK! In a dual role, he delivers like a two-for-one pizza deal—satisfying and value for your buck. However, the songs felt like unexpected guests who show up without calling. Still, the train heist kicks off the movie like a caffeinated squirrel—electric and restless. Then there's Vijay Sethupathi, whose villainy is so potent you'd think he minored in 'Evil 101.' The side stories of Robin-Hood-esque girl squad? Nice touch . Nayanthara doesn't disappoint either; she's the cherry on this cinematic sundae. Now, every film has its Achilles heel, and here, some action scenes miss the bullseye like an archer with hiccups. But overall? A deserving 4.5 out of 5, outshining 'Pathan's 3.5. SRK proves he's the last of the Mohicans in the superstar arena. So if you're in for a high-octane, emotionally layered masala film, 'Jawaan' is your ticket to ride. Grab your popcorn and strap in; this one's a doozy!
