Bollywood actor
Vijay Varma has indeed come a long way and created a niche for himself with rich content-driven projects he chooses to work in. Speaking of that, what was meant to be his debut film Monsoon Shootout clocked 4 years today. He had shot for the film about 10 years ago, but the film only released in 2017. As the film clocks, 4 years to it's release today, Vijay Varma has penned down a heartfelt note for the film, and shared a bunch of his fondest memories from the film.
Sharing throwback photos, Vijay wrote, "Monsoon Shootout..
a film which was meant to my debut. We shot it in 2011. It released in 2017. Today I’m celebrating 4 years of
Monsoon Shootout release and 10 years of its making. The film opened at Cannes 2013 and I got to travel to several countries with it and met some people who became very important in my journey as a new actor. The film was way ahead of it time and I have a feeling today’s audience will accept it even better. Do give it watch. It’s available on @youtube , @disneyplushotstar and @mubiindia. Cheers to @sikhya @fissionfeatures @nawazuddin._siddiqui @tannishtha_c @neerajkabi @guneetmonga @anuragkashyap10 @asifkapadia1 and all the crew members.

Prior to its theatrical release, Monsoon Shootout had premiered at Cannes in 2013 and was lauded for its edge-of-the-seat plot at various film festivals internationally. The film festival is where the actor took a heartwarming photo with his inspiration and late actor, Irrfan Khan.
Looking back, the actor has come a long way in his journey based on sheer talent and hard work and is now all set to rule 2022 with projects that all-star him as the lead actor. His lineup of projects includes ‘Darlings’ with Alia Bhatt and
Shefali Shah, ‘Fallen’ with
Sonakshi Sinha, ‘Hurdang’ with
Sunny Kaushal and Nushrratt Bharuccha as well as an untitled project by Sumit Saxena.
