Jawan supposedly has a female empowerment theme to it, according to star Shah Ruhk Khan. Featuring multiple female characters that have their own story standing independent of the male lead characters, they actually interact as a team, all 7 of them. They don't have many lines amongst themselves, but there is one point where they provide backstory about the male main character...and his wife. The amount of lines and how they provide context on both him and his wife makes it dubious, but be the the judge if it still counts.

The mostly female cast discusses criminal acts in which they participate. But the nature of these acts is surrounding the backstory of a male character, therefore making it dubious.
