Former Miss World Manushi Chhillar has now joined John Abraham as the female lead for his next ‘Tehran’. Inspired by true events, ‘Tehran’ is helmed by Arun Gopalan and is scheduled to release in theatres on Republic Day next year, clashing with his own film ‘Pathaan’.
Contrary to her royal look in debut film ‘Samrat Prithviraj’, Manushi can be seen in a bold short hair avatar for ‘Tehran’. The on set pictures revealed by the makers show her in a tom-boyish look wearing an all black outfit and posing with a gun alongside John Abraham.
Beginning her acting career with a brand name like Yash Raj Films and brilliant performance in her first film, Manushi Chhillar is on to a great start and this latest project with John Abraham will show how versatile as an actor she can be. Manushi’s upcoming project includes another YRF film ‘The Great Indian Family’ in which she will be seen opposite Vicky Kaushal.
Known for action leads, ‘Tehran’ will be John’s first such collaboration with producer Dinesh Vijan. The film is written by Ritesh Shah and Ashish Prakash Verma while Dinesh Vijan, Shobhna Yadav and Sandeep Leyzell have bankrolled it. The production companies behind ‘Tehran’ are Maddock Films in association with Bake My Cake Films.
Welcoming the gorgeous actress to the film, Maddock Films wrote on social media,
“Our #Tehran family gets bigger & better.
Welcoming the very talented & gorgeous @ManushiChhillar to the team!

‘Tehran’ will release in theatres on 26th January, 2023.
