Good Vibes only… Let’s get this vibe going.
Seems to be the undercurrent and the driving force to induce the character of Satya Varma aka (Varun Dhawan) Assistant Commissioner of Police.
Director #Kalees, Producer & Presenter #Atlee’s protege adapts #Atlee’s Tamil blockbuster #Theri (2016) starring Thalapathy Vijay into a Bollywood Film #BabyJohn
Women’s Safety & Child and Girls Trafficking are the issues at the core of the film’s narrative and that itself lifts the graph of the film, because it addresses the critical problem and seeks justice for survivors of sexual violence, thereby delivers a powerful message.
It also highlights and explores the impact of parenting, portraying the contrast between a good father and a bad father, and how good parenting can shape a better society.
Varun Dhawan as DCP Satya Verma, aka #BabyJohn, a fierce cop goes into hiding to protect his young daughter. But comes out of hiding to face his past and protect his future when an old foe, the vicious politician Babbar Sher (played by a frightening Jackie Shroff), reappears.
#Atlee and #Kalees’s skill in balancing action and emotion shine through brilliantly with Varun’s unmatched energy where #VarunDhawan delivers a compelling performance with the integrity of a fighter and #Thaman’s incredible soundtrack elevating the experience.
National award winner #KeerthySuresh making her much-awaited Bollywood debut, comes across pretty confident and looking absolutely charming and beautiful Shines Bright and has a strong screen presence.
Varun and Keerthy’s sizzling on-screen chemistry is quite enduring
Alongside #WamiqaGabbi with her role specifics and limitations looks quite impressive, beautiful and smart.
#ZaraSundarashwaran is just too good and too adorable
#RajpalYadav is his usual self but here he has some meaty and meaningful dialogues to deliver which he does with equal ease.
8 international action directors from across the globe collaborating together to choreograph each high-octane action sequence in #BabyJohn is very much evident because as #VarunDhawan had acknowledged on his experience with the action sequences in #BabyJohn, saying, “The scale of action in this film is massive, and I’ve personally performed nearly all the stunts myself, with minimal use of a body double which is indeed quite a brave and bold take.
#NainMatakka is quite an upbeat track whereas #PikleyPom, #HazaarBaar by @arijitsingh and @shreyaghosal has the elements of glamour sprinkled all over exemplifying an electrifying Thaman musical.
Powerful vocals by Mame Khan, and heartfelt lyrics by Irshad Kamil, #Bandobast is an ode to the bravery and dedication of the police force.
It also introduces #VarunDhawan to audiences as a police officer for the first time, showcasing #Varun’s unique blend of energy, dedication, and versatility to the role.
