With less than two weeks to the release of Jawan, anticipation for the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer actioner is at an all-time high. While the buzz around the trailer is keeping fans on their toes, a new development has sent them into a meltdown. On IMDb, the makers of Jawan have credited two of the most prominent South stars.
According to IMDb, Shah Rukh-Nayanthara's thriller makers have mentioned Karan Johar, Govind Bhana, Prithviraj Sukumaran and Yash. The reason behind the same hasn't been stated. Netizens believe they might be dubbing the Kannada and Malayalam versions of either the film or the upcoming trailer.
Jawan brings together a stellar cast. Shah Rukh teams up with Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi for the first time. While the film has South stars, it also features Sanya Malhotra, Ridhi Dogra and Sunil Grover from the Hindi belt. Priyamani is also playing an important role.

Jawan will release in theatres globally on September 7 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. It marks the Hindi debut of Nayanthara. Director Atlee, who is known to make massy cinema down South, will be making his Hindi directorial debut.
