The highly anticipated action-packed crime thriller, FIR, featuring Vishnu Vishal in the lead role as Irfan Ahmed, is gearing up to hit the silver screens worldwide on Friday (February 11).
The film has been produced by Vishnu Vishal’s production house ‘Vishnu Vishal Studioz’.
The film conveys the message of communal harmony is being released when the country is facing Hijab issue.
The film has been banned in Malaysia, Kuwait and Qatar.
Actor Vishnu Vishal, who is also the producer of the film, retweeted a tweet put out by OTT Global that read, “#FIR banned in Malaysia, Kuwait and Qatar.”
The actor and producer also apologised to audiences in those countries, saying, “Sorry Malaysia and Kuwait audience(s)” and then added Qatar to the list.
Although it is unclear as to why the film has been banned in these countries, rumours doing the rounds suggest that it could probably be because of the film’s theme.
After the stupendous success of ‘Ratchasan,’ young Vishnu Vishal has graduated to a bankable star in ‘FIR’ whose scripts showcase a strong base.
He has put his heart and soul in to the character of Irfan Ahmed, the efforts he has evidently put to make the character sizzle and shine deserves a pat on his back.
The story begins with Vishnu Vishal happens to be at the wrong place at a wrong time and is erroneously convicted as a terrorist owing to circumstantial evidence and faces a lot of hardship, losing his dear mom in the bargain.
He springs up and hits back at those who framed him and the rest of the movie is about how he sets himself free and even volunteers to avert an ensuing danger!
A chemical engineering graduate from IIT who is also a gold medallist finds it difficult to get placed by doesn’t give up.
Gautham Vasudev Menon exudes charm and is impressive as the head of an Investigation Agency.
Manjima Mohan looks a bit too well built and she does nothing much to write home about but both Raiza Wilson and Reba Monica John scores much.
The film is directed by Manu Anand.
