Teaser Review-
PROS
In first look the scenes of the movie looks vintage as it is the core demand of movie story, also Vicky Kaushal looks charming in army uniform and my beautiful memory of seeing him in Uri movie came out. Vicky kaushal is a very talented actor who can fit in any role given to him.
This use of Animation and graphics in the movie is looking very good and it directly connects you to that era of 60 and 70s.
CONS
But to be very honest the dialogue delivery of Vicky kaushal doesn't look up to the mark. If you will listen the real interviews of Legendary Sam Manekshaw you will get a sense of English accent (like Britishers) and on the other hand dialogue delivery of Vicky looks like he is trying to copy
Also the one thing which lacks in the Teaser is the weak role of Smt Indira Gandhi. As we all know Mrs Gandhi was the PM of India in 1971, but her appearance in teaser is very less. She is the soul of this 1971 Indo-pak war and her powerful appearance could have make teaser much more beautiful.
We will be able to discuss about this much more preciously after the release of trailer or movie.
Trailer Review-
The drawbacks which we saw in Trailer of the movie Sam Bahadur seems to get nullified in the trailer of this Movie. After seeing the trailer a person can easily relate himself with the character and aura of vicky kaushal.
Trailer starts with the amazing shayri delivered by the vicky Kausahal as Sam Manekshaw. After this trailer shows different life phases and important events in the life of Sam Manekshaw, especially 1971 war.
I can guarantee you that after seeing the trailer of this movie you will not be able to resist yourself from booking the hall ticket.
