Ahead of the release of Varun Dhawan and Keerthy Suresh starrer Baby John directed by Kalees, the original star of the film it is adapted from has wished his best for the cast and crew. Thalapathy Vijay took to social media platform X to extend his support for the Baby John team.
Presented by Atlee, the film is packed with action, drama, comedy, romance, and additional cuteness. Varun clarified that the film is not a scene-by-scene remake of Theri (2016) but an adaptation with changes in terms of frames and story angles.
