On Thursday, it was reported that Jawan will not release on June 2 due to the pending VFX work. As per the report of Pinkvilla, a source close to the project revealed that the film confirmed that Jawan is not coming in June as the VFX team is still working on the visuals. The source stated that Jawan is no longer releasing on June 2, 2023. The VFX team needs some more time to complete the visual effects of the film. He further added that they would rather come up with a product that competes with the best in the country than a substandard one. Jawan would be Shah Rukh Khan's second release after the action blockbuster, Pathaan. After Jawan, Khan will be seen in Rajkumar Hirani's Dunki with Taapsee Pannu.
