John Abraham started his career as an actor with an alpha-male image. Who can forget that fantastic brawn in Jism that came out in 2003? But as he gained more experience in Bollywood, he began to explore and experiment with the vastness the industry has to offer. In 2012, he became a producer and made the unforgettable Vicky Donor.

He has also backed films like Madras Cafe, Parmanu, and Batla House, all based on true incidents and narrating the stories of unsung heroes. And now, the actor and producer has undertaken the responsibility to tell the inspiring story of another unsung hero, and this time, it's a woman. This woman is entrepreneur Revathi Roy. She's the founder of Hey Deedee, which is India's first logistics company driven by women.

They have taken upon themselves to empower urban underprivileged women and are committed to their uplifting and empowerment. And Abraham now wishes to make a story on her inspiring life. Taking to his Twitter account, he wrote that he was very happy to have Revathi Roy on board and her story flips the rags to riches adage in a compelling way.

Take a look:

And the film will be helmed by the same man who directed him in Romeo Akbar Walter, Robbie Grewal. The actor describes this as a dramatic yet delicately balanced film. It's yet to be revealed who will play Roy in the film. Coming to Abraham's acting assignments, he'll be seen in films like Attack, Mumbai Saga, and Satyameva Jayate 2.
