Director Atlee wants to take the hugely successful Shah Rukh Khan starter Jawan to the Golden Globes, Oscars and the National Film Awards. The director said to ETimes in an interview, “Of course, even Jawan should go, if everything falls in place. I think every effort, everybody, every director, every technician who is working in cinema, their eyes are on the Golden Globes, Oscars, National Awards, every award. So, definitely, yeah, I would love to take Jawan to the Oscars. Let's see. I think Khan sir will watch and read this interview. I will also ask him over a call 'Sir, should we take this film to the Oscars?”

Jawan features Khan in a double role as father and son. The film also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in central roles with a special appearance by Deepika Padukone. The film's supporting cast includes Priyamani, Sanya Malhotra, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Aaliyah Qureshi, Lehar Khan, and Girija Oak.
