Tamannaah Bhatia seems to be on a roll with back-to-back major projects. After making headlines for her rumored casting in No Entry 2, the actress is now reportedly set to star in Rohit Shetty’s upcoming action drama, based on the life of former Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria. According to a report by PeepingMoon, Tamannaah is expected to play Preeti Maria, Rakesh Maria’s wife, a strong and supportive figure in his life. She is said to be paired opposite John Abraham, who is likely to portray Rakesh Maria.
A source close to the development revealed, “Preeti has been a constant pillar of strength for Rakesh, supporting him through some of the most dangerous and testing moments of his career… Tamannaah is thrilled and honored to bring this character to life.” If confirmed, the film will mark Tamannaah’s reunion with John, after she appeared in a brief role as his wife in Vedaa (2023).
The film is reportedly inspired by Rakesh Maria’s autobiography Let Me Say It Now and is being helmed by Rohit Shetty. The shoot began on April 18 in Mumbai, with plans to film across 40 iconic locations, including CST Station, Dongri, and Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. The makers are eyeing an early 2026 release, although an official announcement is still awaited.
