Karan Johar’s latest production, Kill, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) last year, marks Lakshya Lalwani’s Bollywood debut. The film was showcased in the Midnight Madness section of TIFF and was one of 10 films chosen to be exhibited at the festival.
The film tells the gripping story of Indian Army commando Amrit (Lakshya) who races against time and armed adversaries on a New Delhi-bound train to rescue his beloved Tulika (Tanya Maniktala). According to Deadline, Chad Stahelski, Jason Spitz, and Alex Young of 87Eleven Entertainment will lead the remake, attracted by the original film’s intense action sequences and compelling narrative.
Meanwhile, News18 gave the film 4 stars. The review read, “A week after an innovative take on mythology was delivered in the form of Kalki 2898 AD, director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat delivers a refreshing take on Indian action films with Kill. If you love hardcore action films, Kill is a treat to watch. The film is not for the weak-hearted and is bound to leave you sick in the tummy if you can’t handle too much gore. Watch the film for it.”
