About the film

Along with Varun, the film also features Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi, Jackie Shroff, and Rajpal Yadav. Superstar Salman Khan has also made a special appearance in the action-thriller, which is directed by Kalees. The film has been produced by Jawan-fame Atlee.

The film narrates the story of a police officer who goes into hiding to bring up his daughter in a safe environment. However, he must face his past when her life is threatened. The film, which is a remake of Theri featuring Vijay in the lead role, opened to mixed response. However, the film failed to elicit the expected response at the box office.

As per Hindustan Times' review, the film “starts off on a very choppy note, and there’s no soul for about 40 minutes”.

“Overall, there’s nothing much that makes Baby John stand out apart from the action. It’s watchable if you can sit through the boring songs, and the atrocious first half hour. PS- Please stop wasting Salman Khan for a cameo in every other film. Kitni baar use karoge, Bhai?,” read the review.
