Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan: Is that Vijay Sethupathi in the new poster?

Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film Jawan, directed by Atlee, has been creating a lot of buzz ever since its prevue was released earlier this month. The prevue gave a glimpse of SRK's double role as a father and son, both involved in the nuclear mission. The film also stars Nayanthara, Sanya Malhotra, Sunil Grover and Rana Daggubati in pivotal roles.

However, one of the most intriguing aspects of the film is the presence of South star Vijay Sethupathi, who is rumoured to be playing a key role in the film. While his character details are still under wraps, the makers have dropped a mysterious new poster that seems to feature his eye.

The poster shows a close-up of an eye with a scar on the eyebrow, looking intensely at something. The caption reads, "He's watching you closely! Watch out for him. #Jawan." The poster has sparked speculations among fans that it is Vijay Sethupathi's eye and that he might be playing a villain or an antagonist in the film.

Vijay Sethupathi, who is known for his versatile roles in films like Super Deluxe, Vikram Vedha and Master, has previously revealed that he met SRK at Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan's wedding and expressed his desire to play a bad guy for him. He also said that SRK took care of him like a kid on the sets of Jawan and that he loved working with him.

The makers of Jawan have been releasing new posters of the film every day, building up the anticipation for the film. Earlier, they released posters of SRK in his bald and bearded look with a gun in his hand and Nayanthara in her action-packed avatar with a rifle. The film is slated to release on September 7 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages.
