The prevue of Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming actioner Jawan was unveiled on Monday. Directed by Atlee, the film also stars Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani and will also have a special appearance by Deepika Padukone.

The prevue opens with different shots of people running in a frenzy, in a village and at a metro station. Shah Rukh Khan’s voiceover ensues, “Who am I? Who am I not? I don’t know.” We see glimpses of SRK, spying on a guarded truck via binoculars, making a grand entry in khakis, leading a battalion in camouflage and supporting himself on a rifle as he sits with half his face in a grey mask. “Ready?” he asks.

We get glimpses of other characters too. Nayanthara is seen as a cop, Vijay Sethupathi intensely trains on a punching bag (he reportedly plays the villain), Sanya Malhotra is also seen filling up a syringe. The prevue is action packed with guns blazing, fistfights atop trucks, soaring bikes and backflips. SRK is seen in various avatars: lean and cleanshaven, completely mummified in white ribbons and also bald. He even owns his bald look and dances inside a metro train, on an old Hindi number.

Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Gauri Khan, Jawan’s music has been by Anirudh Ravichander. The film is slated to be released on September 7.
