Sam Bahadur Teaser, starring Vicky Kaushal in the titular role has been released. Directed by Meghna Gulzar, the film is based on India’s first field Marshal, Sam Manekshaw. The biographical drama also stars Sanya Malhotra, Rajiv Kachroo, Neeraj Kabi, and Fatima Sana Shaikh, along with several others.
“Mujhe politics mein koi interest nahi hai,” says Vicky as Sam in a scene that seems to be a room full of ministers. Manekshaw’s passion to fight for and protect the country is visible from the get-go. Vicky completely skins into the skin of his character. We see him leading his army troops always to be ready to fight for the nation.
Fatima Sana Shaikh plays the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, whereas Sanya Malhotra plays Siloo, Sam’s wife. The movie will depict Sam Manekshaw’s career in the Indian army and his contribution to the victory during the 1971 war that ended with the creation of Bangladesh. The movie is slated to release on the big screen on December 1, 2023.
