The movie has been in the news ever since the makers unveiled the first teaser, showing Varun in a completely different avatar. Since then, his fans have been eagerly waiting for the movie to hit theatres. Earlier, the movie was supposed to release on May 31, but owing to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, makers had to postpone the release.

When will Baby John hit the theatres?

On Wednesday afternoon Atlee took to his Instagram handle to announce the new release date with a new poster.
