== Reception ==
=== Critical response ===
[[Sukanya Verma]] of ''[[Rediff.com|Rediff]]'' gave 4/5 stars and commended ''Jawan''{{'s}} political storytelling, writing that it "boldly and directly points fingers at the ineffective government and appeals to recognise the power of the finger and vote".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rediff.com/movies/review/jawan-review-sukanya-verma/20230907.htm|title=Jawan Review: Shah Rukh Is Simply Amazing!|website=Rediff}}</ref> Monika Rawal Kukreja of ''[[Hindustan Times]]'' termed it a "massy, meaningful actioner".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/jawan-review-shah-rukh-khan-packs-a-punch-in-this-massy-meaningful-actioner-101694057660807.html|title=Jawan review: Shah Rukh Khan packs a punch in this massy, meaningful actioner|website=Hindustan Times}}</ref> Nandini Ramnath of ''[[Scroll.in|Scroll]]'' believed that the film worked primarily due to Khan, writing that his "screen image – expansive, suffused with love, heroic in an old-fashioned way without being aggressively macho, irreverent but also sincere – helps sell a conceit that might have crashed with any other actor".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://scroll.in/reel/1055375/jawan-review-a-rousing-guts-and-glycerine-saga|title=‘Jawan’ review: A rousing guts-and-glycerine saga|website=Scroll.in|accessdate=7 September 2023|date=7 September 2023}}</ref>
