An Action Hero
I know how to act out a fight, not how to actually fight.
Directed by Anirudh Iyer
Produced by T-Series, Colour Yellow Productions
A high-energy action-comedy thriller that plays with the gap between movie heroics and real-world survival, as a falsely accused actor becomes the protagonist of his own chaotic chase.
At the age of just 30, Maanav at the peak of his acting career gets caught up in a murder accusation, which turns his own life into an eccentric action thriller as he flees the country, with a vengeful politician hot on his heels.
