John Abraham unveils teaser for 'Tehran'; film goes on floors
What's the story
Actor John Abraham is back with another action-packed film!
Titled Tehran, the geo-political thriller film will mark his debut collaboration with Dinesh Vijan's banner Maddock Films.
The film is said to be based on true events and will reportedly follow the lines of Abraham's films like Madras Cafe, Parmanu, and Batla House.
As per the teaser, the film has officially gone on floors.
Context
Why does this story matter?
Producer Vijan's banner Maddock Films has given us some notable films like Badlapur, Stree, and Mimi, to name a few.
On the other hand, Abraham is famous for appearing in hardcore action films, so we're sure that this one too will follow suit.
His previous films Satyameva Jayate 2 and Attack didn't fare well.
Hopefully, Tehran and Ek Villain Returns will change his streak.
