The upcoming Varun Dhawan movie Baby John is the official Bollywood adaptation of 2016’s Tamil flick Theri starring Thalapathy Vijay. The latter featured the tale of Joseph Kuruvilla, a single father and a bakery owner who lives in Kerala with his daughter.
However, things take a turn when his daughter is caught in the crosshairs of the wrong people, making him reveal the true identity of a police officer called Vijay Kumar who was presumed dead. As his foes grow aware of his existence, Vijay/Joseph must save his daughter and face every evil in his way.
With Thalapathy Vijay in the lead role, the movie featured Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Amy Jackson as co-leads. The Tamil movie directed by Atlee marked the director’s first collaboration with Vijay which would later continue with Mersal and Bigil. Besides the leading actors, the film also had Nainika, Radhika Sarathkumar, Rajendran, Mahendran, and many more in key roles.
While Baby John is set to be the Bollywood adaptation of the Vijay starrer, it is said to have undergone certain changes with its presentation. Additionally, the movie marks the debut of Keerthy Suresh in Bollywood cinema.
Furthermore, the film directed by Kalees and co-produced by Atlee also has Bollywood superstar Salman Khan making a cameo appearance with an action-packed sequence.
