Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan: Thalapathy Vijay to star in the Atlee directorial?

Shah Rukh Khan fans have been gearing up for the upcoming Atlee directorial, Jawan. Without a doubt, 2022 is the busiest year of SRK as the actor is preparing himself for back-to-back movies including the crime thriller. On the other hand, a recent picture has gone viral that made the internet question whether Thalapathy Vijay would star in the drama or not.

Shah Rukh Khan is reportedly in Chennai right now, resuming the shoot of Jawan. There had been speculations that a prominent Tamil star was doing a cameo in the action film but no confirmation from the film team. On Wednesday, a picture surfaced on Twitter claiming to show Shah Rukh in conversation with Vijay on the sets of the film, ‘proving’ that the latter was indeed shooting a cameo for the film.

The picture shows Shah Rukh Khan wearing a white kurta leaning to his left looking at Vijay, who is staring ahead. Vijay, popularly known as Thalapathy among fans, is wearing a maroon shirt in the picture. The two seem to be surrounded by people. However, the picture is not from the sets of Jawan. In fact, the picture is fake, edited two images together, using Shah Rukh from an old party while Vijay from another event. Shah Rukh’s pic is from Baba Siddiqui’s recent iftaar party. In the original picture, Shah Rukh was actually looking at Baba while speaking to him.
