It’s a special film that celebrates dance and life: Tiger

-

After Heropanti (2014) and Baaghi (2016), filmmaker Sabbir Khan has teamed up for the third time with Tiger Shroff in Munna Michael. In what is being called as India’s first dance-action film by the makers, they promise to showcase never-seen-before dance choreograp­hy and stylised action. Starring Tiger Shroff, it also has Nawazuddin Siddiqui and debutante Niddhi Agerwal in the lead cast.

It is based on the story of Munna, a street boy from Teen Batti in Mumbai, who loves dancing, and has grown up idolising the legendary dancer, Michael Jackson. The makers say that the film will push the envelope when it comes to action and dance.

Talking about the film, Tiger says, “Munna Michael is an attempt at presenting stunning dance moves along with power-packed action. With the blessings of all our fans and the audience we’re hoping it reaches great heights. It’s a special film that celebrates dance and life.”

Khan, who has directed the film says, “I had spoken to Tiger about a story and a character that I had in mind called Munna Michael, a year ago. That stayed with him. We’re keeping all the quintessen­tial elements of Hindi cinema — heroism, music, dance and action — intact, while trying to raise the bar. It’s our third outing together and we are hoping to score a hat trick.”

Producer Viki Rajani adds, “Munna Michael is tailormade to showcase Tiger Shroff ’s winning moves and no one presents him better than Sabbir. It’s been an exciting journey working with a hit pair like them.”

Produced by Eros Internatio­nal & Viki Rajani’s Next Gen Films, Munna Michael releases on July 21, 2017.
