First Look: Farhan Akhtar in Toofan

Farhan Akhtar shares his first look from his upcoming boxing drama Toofan on Twitter.

The actor showed off his rippling muscles in the picture, taken from the ringside.

'When life gets harder, you just get stronger. Iss saal #Toofan uthega. Releasing on 2.10.2020,' Akhtar captioned the photo.

Directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Toofan also features veteran actor Paresh Rawal and Mrunal Thakur.

Toofan is co-produced by Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment and ROMP Pictures.

It is scheduled to release on October 2.
