The makers of the Marathi action film Babu recently unveiled a cryptic motion poster, which saw a young man with a toned physique fearlessly standing on a boat, his back to the camera.

It has now been revealed that Ankit Mohan will play the lead role in Mayur Madhukar Shinde's directorial debut. 

Taking to social media on Wednesday, the makers of Babu shared a new motion poster, which sees a shirtless Mohan in a dashing avatar. 

Gayatri Datar and Ruchira Jadhav will also star in the project, which will mark the feature film debut of the former. Datar became a household name in Maharashtra after starring in the daily soap Tula Pahate Re. This is also Jadhav first major project. 

Mohan is not new to the action genre, as he has starred in period dramas such as Farzand (2018) and Fatteshikast (2019).

Babu is being backed by the Shree Krupa Productions banner and AA Films. The film is slated to be released later this year.
