Meenaakshi Chaudhary cast opposite John Abraham in ‘Force 3’; shoot to start in November - Reports

John Abraham is set to reboot the ‘Force’ franchise, and he has roped in Bhav Dhulia to creatively spearhead the project as a director. ‘Force 3’ will mark the beginning of a new franchise, as John is looking to marry action with edge-of-the-seat content. Now, reportedly, the makers have cast Meenaakshi Chaudhary as the female lead of the film.


Meenaakshi Chaudhary’s Hindi debut
According to Pinkvilla, Meenaakshi is all set to make her full-fledged Hindi debut with ‘Force 3’. After auditioning multiple names, John and Bhav Dhulia have locked Meenaakshi as the female lead of ‘Force 3’. Much like John, even Meenaakshi will have an action-packed role in the film. She will be undergoing multiple action workshops over the next few months, as a part of the prep for her part.



Filming schedule and production update

Reportedly, ‘Force 3’ goes on floors in the month of November 2025. The pre-production for the film is going on in full swing and John dives into the world of the film right after calling it a wrap on the Rakesh Maria Biopic with Rohit Shetty. The cop-thriller is expected to be wrapped up by the end of October for a release in the first half of 2026.


Project vision and script development

The report states that John secured the rights to ‘Force 3’ from Vipul Shah and plans to revive the original essence of the film by focusing on a grounded, desi conflict. He is actively working with Bhav and the creative team on the script, making this project especially meaningful to him.
