Director: Anirudh Iyer
Writers: Anirudh Iyer, Neeraj Yadav
Stars: Ayushmann Khurrana, Mirabel Stuart, Rachit Jadoun
Ayushmann Khurrana tries to play against type in writer-director Anirudh Iyer's clever action flick, co-starring Jaideep Ahlawat.
An Action Hero is an action drama film written by Neeraj Yadav while Anirudh Iyer was in charge of directing. The film stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Amro Mahmoud in leading lead roles along with Alexander Garcia, Mohd Talib, Bogumila Bubiak, Hiten Patel, Mirabel Stuart and many others in supporting roles.
Cinematography was done by Kaushal Shah and is edited by Ninad Khanolkar. Tanishk Bagchi composed the music for this film. The film is produced by Bhushan Kumar and Aanand L. Rai under the banner of T-Series Films and Color Yellow Productions.
Actor Ayushmann Khurrana would hope to restart his career with the upcoming film An Action Hero, in which he plays a movie star caught up in a real-life action movie plot. Ayushmann previously described the film as a "disruptive genre breaker". An action hero comes after a series of disappointing releases for the once unbeatable star.
Based on the 1990s Hollywood hit Last Action Hero, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, An Action Hero is not only pitched as a thriller but also a commentary on the fickle nature of stardom, including a nod to today's volatile times in the ones Bollywood stars often meet. on the receiving end of public anger.
A chase sequence featured in the trailer is full of humor, with Ayushmann and antagonist Jaideep Ahlawat (who believes Ayushmann's character was responsible for the death of his brother) in top form. Jaideep previously played a "villain" type in a similar chase-oriented setup in Dibakar Banerjee's Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar. Anirudh Iyer, who has assisted on films like Shah Rukh Khan's Zero and Tanu Weds Manu Returns, has written the story, while Neeraj Yadav has penned the script.
Ayushmann is best known for socially relevant family dramas like Badhaai Ho and Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, but recent efforts to achieve the same level of success have failed. Ayushmann's films have been struggling at the box office in the post-pandemic era; Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, Anek and the recent Doctor G underperformed, despite the generally positive response.
The film's poster featured Ayushmann's character heroically posing in front of a film poster, prompting the film's self-referential tone. Directed by Anirudh Iyer, the film was previously described as having "slick action and offbeat satire". An Action Hero is produced by Aanand L Rai, also known for his small town dramas. The film will be released in theaters on December 2.
