Sid Anand is developing a Bollywood version of Rambo. And no, there won’t be the typical singing and dancing (I’d be okay with that -Ed).

The film, set to debut at Cannes, stars Tiger Shroff as Rambo. And Anand promises that the film will resonate with Indian audiences. But it also may be controversial, in a manner similar to First Blood in the 80’s.

And Stallone? He’s fine with it.

I read recently they are remaking Rambo in India… I wish them luck .. Great character.. https://t.co/y06bRZY49w

Needless to say, both Anand and Shroff were ecstatic. They both view both Stallone and Rambo as heroes. Anand’s motivation was to bring the character to a new generation, after all.

Shooting begins at the end of the year in the Himalayas.
