Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan has shattered all the previous records at the box office as the movie has made the business of more than INR 1000 crore worldwide. However, the business hasn’t stopped yet as the producers are aiming for INR 2000 crores.

Jawan is all about action and the father-son duo, however, the movie also portrays some serious social issues which are faced by the Indian people. Director Atlee has taken some real-life incidents and presented them beautifully in the movie. 

Dr. Kafeel’s emotional letter to SRK

One of the cases was about a doctor (played by Sanya Malhotra) who gets falsely blamed for the death of several kids at a hospital when the real culprit was corruption and lack of prompt facilities. However, many fans believe her character was loosely based on Dr Kafeel Khan. Meanwhile, recently, Dr. Khan took to social media and wrote a letter to Shah Rukh Khan to appreciate him for showing the critical incident in the movie.

“Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to obtain your email address, @iamsrk sir. Consequently, I sent the letter by post, but that also showed in transit even after many days. Therefore posting it here.” he tweeted.

Here’s what he wrote in his letter to SRK

“I trust this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I recently had the privilege of watching your latest film, “Jawan,” and I felt compelled to convey my deep appreciation for your extraordinary commitment to using cinema as a means to address critical socio-political issues.

The movie’s poignant portrayal of the tragic Gorakhpur Encephalitis incident has left an indelible mark on my heart. As someone who has had a personal connection with the incident and its aftermath, I was profoundly moved by your decision to bring this story to the screen.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to obtain your email address, @iamsrk sir . Consequently, I sent the letter by post, but that also showed in transit even after many days . Therefore posting it here To The Honourable Mr. Shah Rukh Indian actor and film producerMannat,

While I understand that “Jawan” is a work of fiction, the parallels it draws to the Gorakhpur tragedy serve as a powerful reminder of the systemic failures, apathy, and, most importantly, the innocent lives lost. It underscores the urgent need for accountability within our healthcare system.

The character portrayed by @sanyamalhotra07 ( as Dr Eeram Khan ) although not directly referencing me, encapsulated the experiences I faced. It was heartening to witness the real culprit of “ The Gorakhpur Hospital Tragedy “get caught, though sadly in real life the real culprits are roaming free, I still struggling to get my job back, and those 63 parents who lost their little ones still waiting for justice.”

If given the opportunity, I would be immensely honoured to meet you and the talented director @Atlee_dir, as well as other members of the film crew, to express my gratitude personally. I also want to assure you that my sanctification, devotion, and determination towards serving my countrymen will continue undeterred. Thank you once again for being a beacon of hope. I look forward to your kind reply. Warmest regards, Dr Kafeel Khan.” he wrote in his letter.
