Vicky Kaushal in Sam Bahadur teaser
The teaser of Vicky Kaushal, Sanya Malhotra, and Fatima Sana Shaikh's Sam Bahadur has been unveiled. The film is based on the life of India's First Field marshall and military might, Sam Manekshaw. The teaser offers a glimpse into the world of Sam and the politics around him and the Indian army. Sam Bahadur is directed by Meghna Gulzar.
Sam Bahadur's teaser begins with Sam Manekshaw training a bunch of soldiers and motivating them with his speech. It also gives a glimpse of how he is embroiled in politics that comes along with the military responsibility. The clash between him and Fatima's Indira Gandhi is yet another striking highlight. Sanya, who plays his wife Siloo, says a rousing dialogue that cannot be ignored.
Vicky Kaushal who's playing the lead role, said, "Playing the role of Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw is an immense responsibility and a huge honour. We've poured our hearts into bringing to life one of India's great heroes on screen. I'm humbled to be a part of this project which is so inspiring. The teaser is just a short glimpse of the legend and the story will surely touch the hearts of the audiences."

Meghna Gulzar shared, "I feel blessed that I was chosen to tell this story and work with this incredible cast. Sam Manekshaw is an ideal, a hero. And has lived his life fearlessly and righteously. I hope that our effort to present his momentous life and his admirable qualities will resonate with the audience. He is a role model everyone should know more about."
Producer Ronnie Screwvala added, "It's not often that one gets to make a movie on an Icon and a true patriot. And it's not often that one partners with the perfect Director to bring this story to life and Meghna does that and much more. But it IS often that one gets to work with Vicky and just about every time we do come together - it's for a special reason and on this one his performance is going to leave the audience awestruck. From all of us - A 21-gun salute to Sam Bahadur."
Sam Bahadur is all set to release worldwide on December 1, 2023.
