The cherished Hollywood star Keanu Reeves’ character John Wick, the dog-loving assassin, might have met his end, but it seems a different action-packed movie is set to debut this year, filling the void left by Baba Yaga. Notably, aside from the John Wick spin-off titled Ballerina, there’s another one on the horizon – Fateh, an upcoming Hindi-language action thriller. The trailer for Fateh previews intense hand-to-hand combat, dramatic gunfights, and gruesome violence that will surely appeal to fans of the genre, as it follows the story of a man with a secretive past who must rely on his unique abilities once more.

Renowned Bollywood actor and philanthropist steps into the director’s chair for the first time with the film titled “Fateh”. This impressive debut is marked by intense violence interwoven within a narrative of vengeance. The movie stars Sonu Sood in the lead role and also as the project’s director, alongside Jacqueline Fernandez (from “Kill Em All 2”), Vijay Raaz (“Monsoon Wedding”), Naseeruddin Shah (“The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”), and Dibyendu Bhattacharya (“Criminal Justice”). “Fateh” is set to be released in Indian theaters on January 10, with the full storyline provided in the official synopsis below.

A one-time criminal is recruited to team up with a relentless investigator aiming to expose extensive online fraud in this fast-paced Hindi action-thriller. The film features intense, non-stop scenes of graphic and uncompromising violence.

Sonu Sood Promises the “Ultimate Showdown Between the Real and the Virtual” in ‘Fateh’

Meanwhile, Sonu Sood has hinted at the unique aspects that viewers can look forward to from the film “Fateh.” As per the director and leading actor, the film delves into the “menacing powers of the digital realm,” concluding in a thrilling battle between reality and virtuality. According to Variety’s report.

Over the years, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to receive an extraordinary amount of love from my audience. As we finally release the teaser for ‘Fateh’, it’s this love that I’m relying on. This movie holds a unique significance for me – not only is it my directorial debut, but it’s also a platform to voice concerns about a danger that’s often underestimated: the hidden menace lurking in the cyber world. The core of the film lies in its groundbreaking action sequences, which depict an epic confrontation between reality and virtuality. I dedicate this movie to all the heroes who bravely tackle battles that are unseen by many.

Regarding Keanu Reeves’ character Baba Yaga, the John Wick action series has achieved immense success, ranking among the greatest of all time. Although the main narrative concluded with John Wick: Chapter 4 and news about John Wick 5 remains unclear, the universe is set to grow significantly, with an anime series, a TV show, and multiple spin-offs currently in development. The first spin-off, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, is scheduled for release next year, featuring Ana de Armas as the protagonist, a young assassin who embarks on her personal quest for vengeance.
