Superboys of Malegaon to mark Adarsh Gourav’s theatrical comeback after 8 years
Feb 24, 2025
Actor Adarsh Gourav is set to return to the big screen after eight years with his upcoming film Superboys of Malegaon. Produced by Zoya Akhtar and Excel Entertainment and directed by the visionary Reema Kagti, the film is scheduled for a theatrical release on February 28, 2025. Adarsh expressed his overwhelming joy at the prospect of returning to cinemas after his last theatrical release, Rukh, in October 2017. In Rukh, he shared the screen with Manoj Bajpayee, and now, in Superboys of Malegaon, he essays the lead as he steps into the shoes of Nasir Shaikh, a real-life filmmaker from Malegaon famous for creating spoofs of Bollywood and Hollywood films. The movie also stars Vineet Kumar Singh, Shashank Arora, and other talented actors.
Reflecting on this he further added, "It feels great to have a theatrical release after eight years. The big screen has a magic of its own, and I’m thrilled that Superboys of Malegaon will bring me back to cinemas. When I first heard the story and learned about Nasir Shaikh’s journey, I was instantly drawn to it. Malegaon’s film industry has a unique charm, driven purely by passion, and stepping into this world as Nasir has been one of the most exhilarating experiences of my career. Superboys of Malegaon isn’t just a film; it’s a celebration of cinema made with heart and humor. I can’t wait for the audience to experience it in theatres on February 28, 2025."
