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.

Thug Life reviews say Kamal Haasan shines but Mani Ratnam’s gangster epic falls flat


Thug Life brings together two giants of Indian cinema, director Mani Ratnam and actor Kamal Haasan, for the first time since their 1987 classic Nayakan. Hopes were understandably sky-high, especially following Ratnam’s recent success with the Ponniyin Selvan films. Unfortunately, the film struggles to match the weight of its own ambition.

A promising start with technical brilliance

The film opens with style. A gritty voiceover by Haasan sets the tone, followed by a black-and-white flashback in Old Delhi that is visually stunning and thematically rich. Ravi K Chandran’s cinematography and A. Sreekar Prasad’s editing stand out, creating a slick first act filled with betrayal, tension, and dramatic flair.
