The teaser kicks off with a voiceover of a little girl narrating how even the smallest creatures, like ants, can bring down a giant, setting the tone for a story about resilience and strength. Varun's character, Baby John, is a multifaceted figure-an unstoppable cop, a dedicated father, a culinary whiz and an action hero. The glimpses of his bond with his daughter add a heartwarming layer to the thrilling storyline, making it clear that Baby John is more than just another action film. The Christmas release date adds an extra dash of excitement, with fans eagerly waiting to unwrap this cinematic gift. The teaser is being shown in the theatres along with Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
The film also stars Wamiqa Gabbi, Keerthy Suresh and Jackie Shroff, with Shroff stepping into the role of the antagonist. This marks a special milestone for Varun, as it's his first time playing a "girl dad" on-screen-a touching parallel to his real-life journey, as he recently became a father. On a recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Varun shared a special moment with host Amitabh Bachchan, revealing his daughter's name, Lara Dhawan, as fans watched.
Baby John is set to release on December 25, bringing an action-packed adventure to the holiday season.
