Tiger Shroff in the Hindi remake of Sylvester Stallone’s ‘Rambo’

Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff has been finalised for Indian remake of Hollywood action film ‘Rambo’, which featured Sylvester Stallone.

“Being a martial artist and a huge action movie buff since childhood, this all seems very surreal, and I’m very grateful for this opportunity. By no means do I believe I can replace the legendary Sylvester Stallone; however, I do feel that somehow this is something I’ve been preparing for since childhood.” Tiger said in a statement.

The Hindi remake is targeting a 2018 release, with the shoot expected to begin next year.

Sidharth Anand, who directed Hrithik Roshan in ‘Bang Bang’, will be directing the film.

“‘Rambo’ is one of the most iconic action blockbuster films from my generation. I grew up looking up to heroes such as Stallone, and in a time where the Indian industry is lacking action characters of Rambo’s caliber, this is a perfect time to introduce Tiger in this role” Sidharth said.

Tiger awaits the release of ‘Munna Michael’ and ‘Baaghi 2’.

  • Hit like if you think Rambo remake will be a blockbuster.Hit dislike if you think it will not work.

  • Copy cat Director. Bang Bang was also remake. Try something new by your own. Lack of creativity kill the industry.

  • Bhagi bhagi munna rambo .. sigh
    Mana ke face pe expressions nai hai but atleast ek acting wali movie mein try toh kar u worthless piece of nepotism..

  • It wont nessarily need acting chops but should not be made into a cliche masala movie like baghi

  • I have not seen Rambo . But I have heard it is one of the best action movies of all time . I don’t think Tiger has the talent to match SS . Yes he is very good in Martial Arts and Parkour but he falls short in acting department . He is also not doing anything new and just repeating the same formula again and again . Heropanti, Baaghi, A Flying Jatt, Baaghi 2 and Rambo . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Bollywood is loosing creativity.Only Remakes/biopics/book adaptations/period drama.
    We have no fiction or freshness these days

  • Excited….Tiger have great line up…

    Munna Michael
    Bhaagi 2
    Rambo Remake
    Student Of The Year 2

    Yet I think Hrithik should have been perfect….

  • Tiger is a good action hero no doubt,but my reaction on viewing this article for the first time –
    no,hell no,please no,why are you doing this,NO NO NO

  • Sylvester Stallone is a big fan of Ajay and Akshay. Featured in Akshay film KI tweeted as sent his warm greetings to Ajay for SR.

  • No comparison with stallene. Tiger is undoubtedly an outstanding martial artist.hope he perfectly carry the indian version of rambo. amazingly one of the finest line up among the youngster. I personally want Akshay,Vidyut and Tiger in for high octane spy thriller BABY franchise.i love action filmsss.

  • @ krk
    Lol its funny but not a joke. Just replace Prabhudeva with Rohit shetty.
    Salman can portray Dicaprios role easily and can do action. And only Rohit Shetty can bring the mind bending stunts and action scenes from Inception to justice. Rohit’s zero gravity action scenes will be better than the original Inception. And he is a. master of car action scenes.

    Shirish kunder should rewrite Inception’s script to suit Indian audience.
    Tees Maar Khan was poorly made but it had a multilayered script like Inception.

    1)Inception was about dream within a dream while fooling the host,
    while TMK was about making a film within a film while fooling the villagers.

    2)Inception’s ending left the audience to wonder whether Dom is dreaming or not.
    TMK ending also left the audience to wonder whether it is dream or real (since they show Oscars and TMK escapes).

  • What is the point in remaking a 30 yr old film which had been dubbed in almost all Indian languages and everyone had watched it…
    These Siddharth Anand and Tiger both are fools, the former made a lack lustre remake of a flop ‘knight and day’ and the latter keeps doing the same kind of films i.e either dance or martial arts, he’s limiting his career leading to a career suicide…

    Tiger improve your choices and dialogue delivery… Dance and martial arts you can do for stage shows…

  • Only issue wd d director himself ….rest is ok …and yup an action star is missing …d spot is up for grabs …tiger and vidyut stand out….hopefully vidyut gets also is cast here ….mayb d main villain ….else mk a film wd dese two
