Bloody Daddy Trailer: Shahid Kapoor Is Desi John Wick In This Out-An-Out Action Film

New Delhi: The trailer of Shahid Kapoor’s upcoming film ‘Bloody Daddy’ was released on Wednesday. The out-an-out actioner, directed by Ali Abbas Zafar will release on Jio Cinema on June 9.

Bloody Daddy unravels the story of Sumair (played by Shahid Kapoor) as he faces off against Gurugram’s white-collar drug lords, deceitful friends, a ruthless crime boss, murderous narcs, and both corrupt and honest cops – all during one fateful night. In the midst of a post-COVID party apocalypse, this embattled man embraces a precarious new normal and will stop at nothing to save the one relationship that truly matters to him.

Speaking about his unconventional role, Shahid said: “Doing an out-an-out action film was something I have been wanting to do but I was waiting for the right one to come my way. When Ali came to me with this project, I knew this was it! It’s high octane, its action-packed, it’s thrilling, it’s intense, created especially for a digital-first audience.”

“Ali is a true master when it comes to this style of films, and it’s been very enriching for me to partner with him on this. We really love what we have created together and are bloody excited to see the audience reaction now.”

Ali Abbas Zafar said: “We see a lot of dark crime thrillers in the West, but hardly any in India that are made at that level and intensity. ‘Bloody Daddy’ breaks all stereotypes right from Shahid’s transformation into a ‘killing machine’ to being one of the first direct-to-OTT films to be created on this grand scale! ‘Bloody Daddy’ is a hard-hitting out-and-out dark action thriller that promises raw and real action.”

The film also stars Diana Penty, Sanjay Kapoor, Ronit Roy, and Rajeev Khandelwal in pivotal roles.

Shahid Kapoor was last seen in the much-acclaimed web series ‘Farzi.’ The actor will next be seen with Kriti Sanon in a love story. The film is scheduled to release in October 2023.
