Dev Patel, who is best known for starring in the multiple Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire, is making his directorial debut with the much-anticipated Monkey Man, which enters cinemas worldwide on April 5, 2024.
The film was set to release in India on April 19. However, some media outlets reported that it would be released on different dates in the country as the Central Board of Film Certification was yet to certify the film. But the makers have now confirmed that Monkey Man is releasing in India on April 5.
In addition to Patel, Monkey Man also stars Sobhita Dhulipala and Sikander Kher in pivotal roles. Both actors are set to make their Hollywood debut with the film.
The story of Monkey Man is based in India and is inspired by the tale of Lord Hanuman. The film showcases Patel's character involved in an underground fight club, seeking revenge from his enemies who have taken everything from him.
The movie also stars Makrand Deshpande, Sharlto Copley, Pitobash, Vipin Sharma, Aditi Kalkunte, and Ashwini Kalsekar.
