The remake, which will star Tiger Shroff, will be directed by Siddharth Anand and co-produced by M! Capital Ventures, Original Entertainment, Impact Films and Siddharth Anand Pictures, reports an online portal.

Principal photography for the film is slated to start in February next year, with a release targeted for late 2018. The Indian remake will be given a ‘desi’ twist.

The director feels Tiger “has a power and vulnerability that will make him the next iconic action hero of our time”.

It will follow life of last surviving member of an elite covert unit of the Indian Armed Forces who returns home to discover a war waging in his own land and how he unleashes mayhem by becoming an unstoppable machine after tough training.
