Baby John story

Baby John is the Hindi adaptation of Thalapathy Vijay's Tamil blockbuster - Theri (2016). Directed by Atlee, the original film resonated deeply with audiences, weaving a tale of vengeance and paternal love. This adaptation promises a similar emotional journey, albeit in a new language and cultural context. At the heart of the story lies a police officer, scarred by tragedy. Corrupt politicians brutally took his family, leaving him with only his beloved daughter. Driven by a thirst for justice and fueled by the pain of loss, he embarks on a dangerous path of retribution.
