Varun Dhawan on the Film’s Release

At a recent press conference in Mumbai, Varun Dhawan emphasized the challenges of securing a Christmas release date.
“In today’s environment, strong production backing is essential. Historically, Christmas has been Aamir Khan’s preferred release window, and we are thankful for getting this date.”

Star-Studded Cast and Special Appearances

The film features an impressive lineup, including Wamiqa Gabbi, Keerthy Suresh, and Jackie Shroff in key roles. Additionally, Salman Khan will make a cameo appearance, and Diljit Dosanjh will feature in the song “Nain Mattakka”.

Future Projects for Varun Dhawan

Post Baby John, Varun Dhawan is set to work on Border 2, alongside an upcoming romantic film with Janhvi Kapoor.

Despite the slow start, the makers of Baby John are optimistic about stronger footfalls over the weekend, driven by holiday excitement and word-of-mouth publicity.
