Fans of Akshay Kumar are in for a treat after a long wait, as his epic film Prithviraj, based on the life of India’s bravest Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan, is due to hit theatres in January 2022. Today, the teaser for Prithviraj was unveiled, giving us a glimpse of an epic narrative starring Akshay Kumar as the courageous emperor. Manushi Chhillar, who would be making her acting debut, was described as a beautiful and courageous Sanyogita. You’ll get goosebumps watching the 1-minute-22-second teaser.
Akshay tweeted the Prithviraj Teaser on his Twitter account and stated, “A heroic tale of valour and pride. I’m honoured to play #Prithviraj Chauhan’s Samrat. Only on the 21st of January’22, celebrate #Prithviraj with #YRF50 on a huge screen near you.” When asked about the movie, Akshay replies, “The Prithviraj teaser captures the heart of the film, the essence of the renowned warrior Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan’s fearless life. This is our way of paying honour to his bravery and life. I was awestruck by how he lived and breathed every single second of his beautiful life for his nation and his principles as I read more about him.”
“He (Prithviraj Chauhan) is a legend, one of the bravest soldiers, and one of the most upright monarchs that our country has ever seen,” the celebrity continues. We hope that Indians all throughout the world appreciate our tribute to this valiant warrior. We attempted to tell his tale as truthfully as possible, and the video is a tribute to his unrivalled bravery and courage.” Sanjay Dutt will play Muhammad of Ghor, a cruel invader.
