When it comes to music, Himesh Reshammiya has it all sorted. He is credited for successful songs like 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne', 'Jhalak Dikhla Jaa', 'Tera Suroor', 'Mujhko Yaad Satyae Teri', 'Laagi Chhute Na', 'Aap Ki Khatir' and many more. But when it comes to acting, the musician hasn't had much luck or no luck at all.

In 2023, Reshammiya announced his 10th acting project titled 'Badass Ravi Kumar'. Reshammiya, who has also penned the story and composed music for the film, shared the title announcement teaser on his Instagram account. "Fans have always wanted a spin-off from Ravi Kumar's character. The quirk and eccentricity in Ravi Kumar's character and his dialogues which have become iconic will have a new twist with us narrating the story of Ravi Kumar in this new huge action entertainer," the singer-actor said in a statement. The movie is a spin-off based on his character from the 2014 film 'The Xpose'.
