Jawan Prevue: Twitter Thinks Atlee Took Inspiration From MCU’s Moon Knight For Shah Rukh Khan’s Bandaged Look!
People need to chill a little!

Atlee’s multi-star cast Jawan Prevue is out, and it has left fans counting the days till the film finally hits theatres! And it’s not their fault because the Prevue delivered more than what the fans were expecting. Seeing Shah Rukh Khan as the anti-hero, Nayanthara as a cop, Deepika Padukone beating the baddies to a pulp in a saree and the angry side of Vijay Sethupathi. But apart from these stills, fans have found similarities between Shah Rukh Khan’s avatar and Marvel’s Moon Knight. They think Atlee has taken “inspiration” from this MCU character.

In the Jawan Prevue, you see Shah Rukh Khan all bandaged up in one of the scenes where only his eyes are seen. Internet users were quick to point out that this scene is inspired by Marvel’s Moon Knight.
Moon Knight cameo in #Jawan confirmed.😁

One of them wrote that SRK’s costume looks similar to the MCU character.

There is also a discussion about how Atlee has taken inspiration from both Moon Knight and Vikram’s film Aparichit. That one scene in the Jawan Prevue where Shah Rukh Khan is seen wearing a metallic mask that covers half his face sparked this comparison.
Nothing bro copied a moon knight scene and Aprichit scene i became #Jawan 🥺

Many people came to Atlee’s defence and said a lot of Indian films are inspired by the west, and that this comparison is unfair.
Same kind of scene in lion King too..
Which means is bahubali..copied…? 😂— Sunilkumar Mahanthi (@mahanthi2593) July 10, 2023
These scenes also inspired from other movies l, even mission impossible scenes copied from many other movies so it's not a big issue

One of them wrote that this is Atlee’s style, and how he picks such scenes and executes them in the best way possible.
That is atlee style
Raja Rani -milana movie inspiration
Theri -some old movies inspiration
Mersal -vijaykanth movie inspiration
Bigil -chak de India and thalaiva
Now Jawan also— Vishal (@VISHAL465125) July 10, 2023
No. My inspiration is when Atlee facing this kind of reviews for each movies and doing good to entertain fans 😉

Nothing new :). We are used to it now. Its an atlee movie only when you see these
He picks up the best and executes it in style.

#SRK𓃵 doing more justice in this Gritty Moon Knight-ish look (he is more Mummified here with the spear 🤌🏼) & Action than the actual Moon Knight in his own f**king show 💀.#Jawan https://t.co/cfOKwtdIZd

While a couple of fans also said that the Shah Rukh Khan scene in Jawan is better than Moon Knight in the MCU.
This scene is gonna be better than entire Moon Knight (Marvel TV Show). #Jawan #JawanPrevue pic.twitter.com/C3P1GOidVs

Have people got no chill? Why does every Shah Rukh movie have to be criticised so much even before people have even actually seen it? But anyway, it is their loss because just like Pathaan, this one is going to be a huge hit! Jawan is all set to receive a theatrical release on September 7, 2023.
