December 12, 2024: The excitement surrounding Baaghi 4, the latest installment in the popular action-packed franchise, has reached new levels with the announcement that former Miss Universe 2021, Harnaaz Sandhu, will be making her Bollywood debut in the film. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by A Harsha, Baaghi 4 promises to deliver a thrilling mix of high-octane action, intense romance, and a gripping storyline.
Harnaaz, who made history by becoming the first Indian woman to win the Miss Universe crown in 21 years, is stepping into the limelight with Baaghi 4, joining the star-studded cast alongside action hero Tiger Shroff and actress Sonam Bajwa. Harnaaz shared her excitement on social media, reflecting on the significance of the date—12th December—as it marks both the anniversary of her Miss Universe victory and the day she embarks on her Bollywood journey.
“12th December will forever hold a special place in my heart. Today, I step into a new chapter with my debut film, #Baaghi4. It was exactly three years ago that I was crowned Miss Universe, and now, on this momentous day, I embark on a new journey,” Harnaaz wrote, expressing her gratitude to Sajid Nadiadwala for the opportunity. She added, “I am deeply grateful to the visionary mentor, #SajidNadiadwala Sir, for this incredible opportunity. Joining the #NGEFamily is a dream come true, and I sincerely thank @nadiadwalagrandson for believing in me and turning my Bollywood dream into a reality.”
In Baaghi 4, Harnaaz will share the screen with Tiger Shroff, who has been a staple of the Baaghi series, playing the role of the heroic lead. The film also stars Sonam Bajwa, and the legendary Sanjay Dutt will appear as the film’s villain, adding a menacing edge to the film. Dutt’s character has already intrigued fans, with his first look revealing a dark, powerful antagonist seated on a gothic throne, holding a bloodied and lifeless woman in his arms. His fierce expression promises a chilling performance, with the tagline “Every Aashiq is a Villain” hinting at the complexity of his character.
Tiger Shroff, a key player in the Baaghi franchise, welcomed Harnaaz to the team via an Instagram story, expressing his enthusiasm to work with the former Miss Universe. Fans are particularly excited about the intense showdown between Shroff’s hero and Dutt’s villain, which is expected to be one of the film’s major highlights.
The Baaghi series has built a strong reputation for its thrilling action and compelling narratives since its first release in 2016. The initial film was inspired by the Telugu movie Varsham and featured Shroff alongside Shraddha Kapoor. The subsequent films, Baaghi 2 (2018) and Baaghi 3 (2020), continued the trend of high-energy action and emotional drama, earning both critical and commercial success.
Baaghi 4, produced by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, is set for a theatrical release on September 5, 2025. With a fresh cast, intense action, and a compelling storyline, it is poised to be another blockbuster addition to the franchise. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see how Harnaaz Sandhu fares in her Bollywood debut and how her on-screen presence adds a new dimension to the Baaghi universe.
