Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan returns to Dubai's Global Village to promote 'Baby John'
The actor is all set to release his action thriller 'Baby John' with Keerthy Suresh
Dubai: Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan is bringing his star power to Dubai this weekend on December 21 with a fan interaction event at the Global Village. The actor is in town to promote his upcoming Christmas release, Baby John, out in UAE cinemas on December 25.
Baby John is an upcoming Hindi-language action thriller directed by Kalees and produced by Atlee. It's the Hindi-language adaptation of Atlee's 2016 hit 'Theri'. Featuring Dhawan as a former cop who's forced to confront his past to protect his daughter, the film also features Keerthy Suresh (in her Bollywood debut), Wamiqa Gabbi, Zara Zyanna, and Jackie Shroff as the villain.
The promotional journey of Baby John hasn’t been without its share of drama. During a recent appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show to promote the film, a seemingly lighthearted exchange between the film’s director Atlee and host Kapil Sharma turned into an awkward encounter.
Reports suggest that Kapil’s jokes about Atlee's looks didn’t sit well with the director's fans and was percieved as racially insensitive.
