Is Money Heist An inspiration For Shah Rukh Khan’s Movie Jawan? Mukesh Chhabra The Casting Director Reveals

In a few days, Shah Rukh Khan will release Jawan, his eagerly anticipated and highly anticipated follow-up. King Khan’s second-largest film of the year, after his hugely successful comeback movie Pathaan, is Jawan, which was directed by Atlee. According to reports, SRK will play two roles in the highly anticipated Atlee film. King Khan is rumored to play the “chief” of a tough and courageous girl gang, a glimpse of which can be seen in Jawan’s preview. While millions of SRK fans impatiently await the release of the movie, some of them have developed their own hypotheses about Khan’s forthcoming endeavor.

Shah Rukh Khan in Jawan

One of the many fan theories claims that Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan was influenced by the highly regarded Spanish web serial Money Heist. In the well-known online series, a criminal mastermind by the name of “Professor” commands a group of eight talented individuals with special talents, including two females named Tokyo and Nairobi. So, was Money Heist the real inspiration for Jawan? Here is what Mukesh Chhabra, a casting director who worked closely on Shah Rukh Khan’s film, has to say.

‘Inspired’ by the Money Heist: Mukesh Chhabra on Jawan

The famed Bollywood casting director Mukesh Chhabra, who handled the casting for Jawan, responded to similarities being made between Jawan and the well-known Spanish murder thriller in an exclusive interview with entertainment journalist Faidoon Shahyar. In response to a question about whether Money Heist inspired Jawan, Chhabra said, “Jitne logon ko guess karna hai karte rahiye. Toh aapko pata chalega aapne dekha, Jab Jawan bahar aayegi. I didn’t reveal the messages in the trailer, but they were there. I want everyone to watch it on the large screen while they wait.

A movie special to Chhabra

The casting director, who is a huge fan of Shah Rukh Khan, claims that Jawan is also a “special” movie for him. Additionally, he is certain that the movie will greatly surprise millions of SRK fans.
Shah Rukh Khan, who is getting ready for the release of Jawan, surprised his fans and followers on Friday with a brand-new motion poster for the movie. The newest Jawan motion poster offers a sneak peek at the five interesting appearances the movie’s superstar will make. “Yeh to shuruaat hai… The Many Faces of Justice… yeh teer hain… abhi dhaal baaki hai,” SRK said while uploading the poster. Yeh anth hai, abhi kaal baaki. Abhi Jawaab baaki hai, yeh poochta hai, khud se kuch. Every face serves a specific function. But this is only the start… You must wait for the ace.
