In a subtle reference to Ashutosh Gowariker’s “Swades,” Shah Rukh Khan’s character in “Jawan” is raised by a mother figure named Kaveri Amma, played by Ridhi Dogra.

3. 2017 Gorakhpur Hospital Deaths Reference

“Jawan” cleverly references the tragic events at Gorakhpur hospital in 2017, where over 60 children lost their lives due to a shortage of oxygen caused by government negligence. Sanya Malhotra’s character, Dr. Eeram, reflects the struggles faced by Dr. Kafeel Khan, who tried to save the children by buying oxygen with his own money, only to face legal battles and accusations of dereliction of duty and engaging in private practice by the government. The legal battle drained him financially until he was freed of charges in 2019. Sanya Malhotra’s character, Dr. Eeram, falsely implicated by the authorities in an attempt to conceal a similar failure, draws parallels to the ordeal of Dr. Kafeel Khan.

4. The Lion King Reference

The film playfully includes a reference to “The Lion King,” with one of Shah Rukh Khan’s partners affectionately calling him Mufasa and referring to his son as Simba. This is particularly intriguing as Shah Rukh Khan lent his voice to Mufasa in the Hindi version of Disney’s “The Lion King,” while his son, Aryan Khan, voiced Simba.

5. The Farmers’ Suicide Reference

The movie addresses the grave issue of farmers’ suicides that is often ignored. SRK’s character emerges as a messiah who takes money from the affluent and redistributes it among struggling farmers, highlighting the ongoing challenges farmers face to repay the loan.
