Shah Rukh Khan’s next films have been the subject of numerous media reports. According to rumours, Vijay Sethupathi, who will play the lead antagonist in SRK’s upcoming film Jawan, demanded a hefty fee to play Atlee’s Jawan. Vijay also had to abandon two other endeavors to appear in Jawan.
After a protracted absence, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is returning to the big screen. King Khan last appeared in the 2018 film Zero, and since then, SRK fans have been anxiously awaiting his return to the big screen.

One of the biggest actors in South Indian cinema, Vijay Sethupathi, reportedly demanded a hefty fee to appear in Atlee’s Jawan, according to a claim in a journal.
According to a source, “This is the most Sethupathi has ever demanded a feature film, and the increase in fees came after the enormous praise he received for his performance in Vikram.
He had been in negotiations for Jawan for some time, but the paperwork only came together after Vikram’s resounding triumph. He increased his fee for Jawan from Rs 15 crore to Rs 21 crore.
Vijay Sethupathi had to give up two projects, according to the report, to appear in Jawan. The report also had to drop out of two movies to work on this one, the story continued.
However, the character is so strong that he didn’t mind abandoning other endeavours. Vijay was ecstatic about the character that Atlee produced.
In the meantime, apart from Jawan, Vijay Sethupathi has several other forthcoming projects lined up. His next films include Merry Christmas, in which he co-stars with Katrina Kaif, Viduthalai, a Tamil film, and Mumbaikar, a Bollywood film.
Now, Vijay Sethupathi himselff has confirmed that he will be sharing screen space with Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan in Atlee Ke Jawan.
