Shah Rukh Khan’s viral dialogue ‘Bete ko hath lagane se pehle’ in Jawan wasn’t a part of the script earlier, says writer Sumit Arora

Shah Rukh Khan and the team of Jawan are rightly basking in the success of their film which has collected Rs. 369.43 crore at the box office. Helmed by Atlee, the film stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi with a special appearance of Deepika Padukone. While the film is garnering a great response on social media and box office, one dialogue has been the most viral. From the day the trailer launched, 'Bete ko hath lagane se pehle, baap se baat kar’ received mass acclaim. However, writer Sumit Arora says that the dialogue wasn’t part of the script before.

Writer Sumit Arora said in an interview with PTI that the viral dialogue wasn’t a part of the script, originally. He shared, “It’s a story that will make you believe in the magic of movie-making. That line was never there in our draft originally. The ‘moment’ where SRK sir’s character says the line was always there and we all knew that it is a powerful moment even without a dialogue. But while shooting, it was felt that there should be a line, that this guy should say something.”

 

The writer further added, “I was there on the set, so I was called in, and the first words that came out of my mouth given the situation were, ‘Bete ko hath lagane se pehle, baap se baat kar.’ It felt like the most obvious and most apt thing he should say at that moment. It just fits. Director Atlee and SRK sir both felt it was correct and the shot was taken.”

 

Sumit reacted to the kind of response the dialogue received. He said, "The way SRK sir delivered it gave us goosebumps. But we never thought that that line would become such a huge hit and would resonate with people in this way. As a writer, you can only write a line but its destiny goes on to write itself."

 

Jawan is a Red Chillies Entertainment presentation directed by Atlee, produced by Gauri Khan, and co-produced by Gaurav Verma. The film released on September 7, 2023, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages.
