The action packed drama has had its share of hit by the pandemic. The steadfastness of the makers prevented its release on the OTT platform that delayed its theatrical release from March 27 last year to April 30th and November 5th lately. However, the next release date was further pushed due to the resurgence of the pandemic across the nation.
The Rohit Shetty helmed venture is the fourth iteration in the cop universe following Singham series and Simba adventures. With Akshay kumar and Ms Kaif in the lead, the movie also feature a cameo of the Singham and Simba stars. For the unversed it should be recalled that Akshay Kumar’s charecter Veer Sooryavanshi was introduced as an Anti-Terrorist Squad officer in a cameo in Ranveer Singh starrer Simba.
