A select audience clapped and appreciated the 3minute trailer as the giants of Indian cinema made this critic think as to what was in store in the movie. The tale of an Indian rebel challenging the might of the East India Company sets the tone of this movie

Yash Raj Films has also built up the buzz around the imminent and highly anticipated trailer launch through an innovative marketing strategy to introduce the primary characters of the film through motion posters, prior to the trailer launch.

Thugs of Hindostan is the biggest visual spectacle on the big screen that boasts a larger than life, never seen before cinematic experience for Bollywood audiences. Having pulled off an incredible casting coup by bringing together two of the biggest legends of Indian cinema Amitabh Bachchan (who plays the role of the fierce warrior Khudabaksh) and Aamir Khan (as the roguish Firangi) on screen for the first time, this film is most awaited by audiences. It also stars Katrina Kaif as the gorgeous performer Suraiyya and Fatima Sana Shaikh as the daredevil Zafira.

The film is set to treat audiences across age groups with a visual scale like never before. With the most jaw-dropping action sequences seen on screen to date and an epic war on the seas, the film is set to light up this Diwali.

In yet another first, YRF launched the trailer in IMAX across four continents on the same day, starting in India, Australia, UAE and the UK.

Thugs of Hindostan, is set to release on November 8, in time for the Diwali festivity. The movie is being released in Australia by Mind Blowing Films. www.mindblowingfilms.com
