John took to Instagram to announce the biopic. He posted, “Very happy to have @revathi_roy on board; her story flips the ‘rags to riches’ adage in a compelling way. A truly eventful & inspiring life that has empowered so many women in India. I can’t think of anyone better than Robbie to helm this dramatic yet delicately balanced film.”


Along with John Abraham, the biopic will also be produced by Robbie Grewal and Anil Bohra. Robbie Grewal will also be directing the film. Now, it will be interesting to see which actress will be roped in to play the role of Revathy Roy in the film.

Talking about John’s films as an actor, he will next be seen on the big screen in Mumbai Saga which is slated to hit the screens on 19th June 2020.
