The video showed Tiger in the mood for combat in the background of a city with fire burning everywhere. A number of his industry friends reacted.

The movie is backed by Vashu Bhagnani, Vikas Bahl, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Jackky Bhagnani.

Tiger said Ganapath is his career's most ambitious and challenging project. "This one truly is going to challenge me to an extreme level in terms of action as well the idea is to take the bar a lot higher for myself and Ganapath is just the right vehicle to express a new action for our audiences here," the 31-year-old actor said in a statement.

Vikas, whose last directorial venture was Hrithik Roshan-starrer Super 30, said he is both excited and nervous about the movie.

"There are a few hurdles given the pandemic situation worldwide but we have a great team and there is immense excitement. Tiger keeps setting the benchmarks for us and Jackky is the adrenalin running in our system," he said.

Jackky Bhagnani added that the film maybe an actioner but has a strong emotional quotient.
