Tiger Shroff and Riteish Deshmukh — Collage by India Forums

After the smashing success of War starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, the latter is onto the third installment of the superhit action franchise, Baaghi. Alongside Shraddha Kapoor, Tiger will be seen next in Baaghi 3. Directed by Ahmed Khan and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, the film has also roped in Riteish Deshmukh in the lead cast.

While the film is slated to be an action film, it will also have a touch of humor to it. Talking of Riteish’s character in the film, writer of the film Farhad Samji told Mumbai Mirror, “Riteish has always been known for his comedy yet he impressed as the psychopathic antagonist in Ek Villian. Unlike the previous two installments, Baaghi 3 has a generous dose of humor and the character Riteish portrays complements his comic timing.”

This will be the first time the audience will get to witness Tiger and Riteish together on the big screen. And as exciting as this pairing sounds, writer-director Farhad Samji has added to the already high anticipation around the film, calling the two actors Ram and Lakhan.

“The film slips into serious action after a certain incident and Riteish is one of the catalysts in the plot. He and Tiger are like Ram and Lakhan of our film,” says Farhad.

Besides, the filmmaker also praised his lead cast. “Tiger possesses the lethal combination of aggression on-screen and humility off it. He is a sorted kid, with lots of promise and is a huge hit with youngsters. I am impressed with the way he gives his 100% to all his films,” he said while lauding the War actor.

Talking of his leading lady, Shraddha Kapoor, Farhad told the media daily, “This girl is a gutsy and free-spirited character. She also shares an interesting relationship with Riteish in the film as he is not just Tiger’s brother but married to Shraddha’s sister (played by Ankita Lokhande).”

Baaghi 3 is a spiritual sequel to Baaghi and Baaghi 2 and is all set to hit the theatres on 6 March 2020.
