A Franchise Built on Action and Legacy

The Force franchise, headlined by John Abraham, has been one of Bollywood’s most notable action series. The first film, released in 2011, starred John Abraham and Genelia D’Souza, becoming a commercial hit. Its sequel, Force 2, featured Sonakshi Sinha alongside John and continued the adrenaline-packed legacy.

Now, with Harshvardhan Rane stepping in as the new face of Force 3, he shoulders the responsibility of carrying forward the intense and powerful legacy built by John Abraham.

In a fascinating twist of fate, Rane once worked as a delivery boy, and it was during one of these jobs - while delivering a helmet at the Hyatt Hotel in 2004 - that he met John Abraham for the first time.
