Inspired by the attacks on Israeli diplomats in 2012, Tehran combines powerful performances with an engrossing story. Neeru Bajwa and Manushi Chhillar play important roles in the movie alongside John Abraham, and Madhurima Tuli, Alyy Khan, and Elnaaz Norouzi provide a lot of support for the ensemble cast.
The fact that Dinesh Vijan is producing the movie under the Maddock Films banner in collaboration with Shobhna Yadav and Sandeep Leyzell of Bake My Cake Films lends the project even more legitimacy.
