As anticipation builds for his upcoming film Baby John, actor Varun Dhawan took a spiritual detour to the Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain on Monday. Accompanied by director Atlee and members of the cast, Dhawan participated in the temple’s Aarti ceremony, seeking divine blessings ahead of the film’s Christmas release.
Speaking to the media after the prayers, Dhawan shared his gratitude and reflections, saying, “It was a very good feeling offering prayers here at the temple. God is bigger than the film. I just prayed that people go and watch the movie.”
The excitement surrounding *Baby John* has been soaring since the release of its gripping trailer earlier this month. Featuring a mix of high-octane action and a compelling narrative, the three-minute preview has left audiences intrigued.
In the film, Dhawan steps into a versatile role, portraying a dedicated police officer, a loving father, and a man entangled in a romantic subplot with Keerthy Suresh’s character. The stellar cast includes Jackie Shroff as a formidable antagonist and Wamiqa Gabbi, whose performance adds depth to the storyline.
Adding to the buzz is a surprising cameo by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. His brief but impactful appearance, with just his eyes visible behind a black cloth, ends with him wishing the audience a “Merry Christmas,” further heightening curiosity about his role in the film.
Produced by Murad Khetani, Priya Atlee, and Jyoti Deshpande, and directed by Kalees under Atlee’s presentation, *Baby John* is poised to deliver an electrifying cinematic experience. With its release set for December 25, the film is expected to be a holiday season blockbuster, blending action, emotion, and star power.
