John Abraham kick-starts Romeo Akbar Walter (RAW) with a ceremonial puja

Riding high on the success of his recent release, Parmanu: The Story Of Pokhran (2018), action star John Abraham has started work on his next film, Romeo Akbar Walter (RAW). Before commencing work on the new project, the actor paid a visit to producer Ajay Kapoor of Kyta Productions at his new office and performed puja.

To be directed by Robbie Grewal, RAW will mount the shooting floor on 17th June. It will be shot across three destinations in India in a start-to-finish schedule of 60 days. Earlier, the makers were planning to begin the shoot on 10th June, but they had to push it to 17th June for some reasons.


Apart from John Abraham, the film also stars Sikander Kher and Jackie Shroff in lead roles. Popular television actress Mouni Roy has also been signed on to romance John in the spy thriller movie. John is said to be donning eight different looks in the film, for which National Award-winning makeup artist Vikram Gaikwad has been roped in.

Initially, Romeo Akbar Walter was announced with Sushant Singh Rajput. However, the actor bowed out of the project because of constant delays. The film then went to John Abraham.
