The year 2024 ended with a big Hindi movie releasing in theatres - Baby John. Starring Varun Dhawan, it was one of the most-anticipated releases of last year. Directed by Kalees, the film was a remake of Atlee's Theri, which is quite popular. The original Tamil film stars Vijay in the lead role. Along with Varun, the Hindi film also stars Jackie Shroff, Keerthy Suresh, and Wamiqa Gabbi. When the Hindi film was released in theatres, it mostly received negative reviews. Even the audience didn't show up as expected for Varun's film. Hence, it failed to perform well at the box office.

Rajpal Yadav on Baby John's failure

Rajpal Yadav, who plays a key role in Kalees-directed film was asked about the film flopping at the box office. The actor said in an interview that if the film wasn't a remake, it would have been the most well-made movies in 25 years of his career.
