Analysis:

BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia expressed his gratitude towards Shah Rukh Khan for exposing the alleged corruption and policy paralysis of the Congress party in the movie ‘Jawan’. Bhatia believes that the movie serves as a reminder of the “tragic political past” during the UPA government’s rule from 2004 to 2014.

Bhatia specifically highlighted a dialogue delivered by SRK in the movie, where he says, “We are young, we can risk our lives, but only for the country; There is no pity for people like you who sell the country.” According to the BJP spokesperson, this dialogue is particularly relevant to the Gandhi Parivar, referring to the Congress party and its leaders.

However, the release of ‘Jawan’ has sparked a cold war among political parties. Some Congress leaders have praised the movie and even questioned if the government would screen it, similar to how it screened the movie ‘Gadar’. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has claimed that the dialogues in ‘Jawan’ align with their leader Arvind Kejriwal’s statements.

Bhatia supported his analysis by presenting statistics. He mentioned that during the Congress era, 1.6 lakh farmers committed suicide, while the BJP has implemented measures such as Minimum Support Price (MSP) and credited ₹2.55 lakh crore to 11 crore farmers. He also highlighted the BJP’s efforts in providing bulletproof jackets and implementing the One Rank One Pension (OROP) scheme for soldiers, contrasting it with the Congress’ alleged prioritization of VVIP choppers over the safety of soldiers.

Bhatia thanked Shah Rukh Khan in a tweet and credited PM Narendra Modi’s leadership for addressing these issues. He stated, “Thank you, @iamsrk. Under the leadership of PM Shri @narendramodi Ji, these issues are now a thing of the past.”

‘Thank you SRK for…’: BJP, AAP, Congress Queue for Credit

The release of ‘Jawan’ has led to political parties seeking credit for various aspects of the movie. The AAP has praised the movie, stating that it encourages voters to raise questions, which aligns with their party’s approach. Arvind Kejriwal, the leader of AAP, referred to the movie and emphasized the importance of education and medical aid while voting.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh questioned whether the government would have the courage to screen ‘Jawan’ in the new Parliament building, similar to how it screened ‘Gadar’. He tweeted, “Gadar-2 was shown in the new Parliament building a few days back. Will the Modi Sarkar have the courage to screen Jawan as well?”

The BJP responded by showcasing Shah Rukh Khan’s tweet congratulating PM Modi for the success of the G-20 summit. They questioned whether this direct endorsement would make SRK fall from grace in the eyes of a certain section. BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla also criticized the fact-checkers and their employers for searching for indirect hints in the movie, suggesting that they should show similar grace and congratulate India for the successful summit.
