Baby John Film:
The highly anticipated action thriller Baby John, starring Varun Dhawan, is all set for its theatrical release on December 25, 2024. Directed by Kalees, the film is a remake of the 2016 Tamil hit Theri by Atlee. With an exciting star cast, high-octane action sequences, and a gripping storyline, Baby John has already generated significant buzz ahead of its release.
Plot Overview
The story follows DCP Satya Verma (played by Varun Dhawan), a brave and determined police officer who takes down a notorious politician’s son for committing a heinous crime. In retaliation, the politician, Babbar Sher, destroys Satya’s family, leaving only his daughter Khushi (Zara Zyanna) alive. To protect his daughter, Satya fakes his own death and relocates to Kerala under the alias “Baby John.”
Years later, Babbar Sher discovers that Satya is still alive and threatens his peaceful life. What follows is an intense battle of vengeance, as Satya must confront Babbar Sher to protect Khushi and avenge his family’s destruction.
Star Cast and Characters
The film features an ensemble cast, with Varun Dhawan taking center stage in the titular role.
