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.

  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
