John Abraham and Rensil D’Silva team up for a film on bikers

John Abraham is undoubtedly in the best phase of his career. His last two films – Parmanu: the Story of Pokhran (2018) and Satyamev Jayate (2018) – helped him regain his lost stardom, and looking at the slate of his upcoming films, we can say he is set to strengthen his position further, as one of the most bankable stars in Bollywood.

Abraham, who is presently busy promoting his upcoming film RAW (Romeo Akbar Walter), announced a new project earlier today. The untitled film, which will be helmed by Rensil D’Silva, is set to begin production in July 2019.


Talking about the film, John said, “A story around motorcycles is very close to my heart. This is a story about human relationships. I decided to develop a film on riders and their love for motorcycles in-house two years ago. A lot of research and time has been spent on the subject since then. I’m happy to have Ajay Kapoor and Rensil onboard for this project. I am especially excited that we will film the action sequences in the Isle of Man, the home of racing on real roads!”

Director Rensil D’Silva added, “I’ve grown up on films like Days of Thunder (1990) and Top Gun (1986) and it’s a dream come true to make an adrenaline pumping, emotionally charged bike racing film like this with John.”

John will jointly produce the film along with Ajay Kapoor of Kyta Productions. It is expected to release next year.
