A post shared by Farhan Akhtar (@faroutakhtar)



Farhan wrote, "Let’s start at the very beginning. Throwback to March 2019 and still early days of training in the ring with @drewnealpt. Drew pointed out that I’m still not relaxed in the shoulders and still not moving my feet to good effect. I’m actually trying to not sit down in between sets (didn’t tell Drew that though 😬). Work in progress with progress being the work 👊🏽 #ToofaanUthega #21stMay"

Farhan Akhtar will be seen essaying the role of a goon from Dongri who embarks on a journey to become a national-level boxer. The actor seems to have been training hard for a long time to get into the skin of the character.

Directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Toofaan marks the second collaboration for Akhtar and Mehra, who previously brought Milkha Singh's life story to the big screen in the 2013 biopic Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. Toofaan is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Farhan Akhtar. The much-awaited movie features a stellar cast with Farhan in the lead alongside Mrunal Thakur, Paresh Rawal, Supriya Pathak Kapur and Hussain Dalal. The movie will premiere globally on Amazon Prime Video on May 21, 2021.
