"Eid 2020 will be about a bullet for a bullet. Sooryavanshi stars the Khiladi of all time, Akshay Kumar and directed by the blockbuster machine Rohit Shetty," Karan Johar, who is co-producing the film, tweeted.

Sooryavanshi will be the fourth installment in the Rohit Shetty-directed cop drama series, the other three being Singham, Singham 2 (2014) and Simmba. "From Rohit Shetty's police universe, get ready for the fire-packed Sooryavanshi," tweeted Akshay Kumar while sharing the first posters of the film.

The makers are yet to finalize the female lead opposite Akshay.
