Asked if he will be meeting Stallone while prepping up for the movie, Tiger said, “That will be a dream come true if I get to meet him sometime during the process of Rambo.”

Stallone starred in the actioner. The remake will be directed by Siddharth Anand and co-produced by M! Capital Ventures, Original Entertainment, Impact Films and Siddharth Anand Pictures. The Rambo franchise first came to life in 1982 with First Blood, which minted over $125 million worldwide. It was followed by a number of successful remakes, including the most recent Rambo in 2008, which earned $113 million globally.

The Indian remake will be given a ‘desi’ twist. It will follow the life of the last surviving member of an elite covert unit of the Indian armed forces who returns home to discover a war waging in his own land -- and how he unleashes mayhem by becoming an unstoppable machine after tough training.
