The actor was last seen in Vedaa. The action-drama film is about a Dalit woman who fights back against caste discrimination and the repressive system in her village. The film stars Sharvari Wagh as Vedaa, John Abraham as Major Abhimanyu Kanwar, and Abhishek Banerjee as Jitendra Pratap Singh.

OTTplay review for Vedaa reads, "Vedaa is a good story, one that needs to be told. However, it misses the mark when it comes to balancing commercial elements with nuance, causing the overall product to suffer. Nevertheless, Sharvari wins hearts."

Directed by Nikkhil Advani, Vedaa also features Abhishek Banerjee as the antagonist, and Tamannaah Bhatia as John Abraham's love interest in the movie. The film is currently streaming on ZEE5 and you can also watch it on OTTplay Premium with a subscription.
