“Kill” is a movie that has redefined Bollywood action films. Written and directed by Nikhil Nagesh Bhatt, the film features a stellar cast including Lakshya, Tanya, Raghav, Abhishek Chauhan, and Ashish Vidyarthi.
Beyond its impressive box office numbers, grossing around 41 crores globally, the film has garnered positive reviews from critics and audiences alike.
Global OTT Release
In an interesting development, “Kill” has made its way to OTT platforms, though with limited accessibility.

Viewers in these regions can stream the movie for $24.99 (Rs 2,092). The Indian audience will have to wait until September for the OTT release.
Hollywood Remake by Chad Stahelski
Adding to the film’s accolades, renowned Hollywood director Chad Stahelski, famous for the “John Wick” series, has acquired the rights to remake “Kill” in Hollywood.
Stahelski, who has directed all four “John Wick” films starring Keanu Reeves, was impressed after watching a preview of “Kill”. He praised the film as one of the most brilliant, wild, and creative action films he has seen in recent times.
Stahelski expressed excitement about developing an English-language version of the film, highlighting the exceptional fight scenes crafted by Nikhil.

The Hollywood remake has been officially confirmed by Adam Fogelson, Chairman of Lionsgate Motion Pictures Studio Group.
“Kill” is produced by Karan Johar and Apoorva Mehta’s Dharma Productions, along with Guneet Monga and Achin Jain’s Sikhya Entertainment.
This collaboration sets high expectations for the Hollywood adaptation, promising a thrilling experience for global audiences.
