Begum Jaan trailer: Vidya Balan and her army is here to save their pride in the most fierce manner. Watch video
Begum Jaan trailer: Vidya Balan steals the show but not without her all-women team which stars Ila Arun, Gauahar Khan, Pallavi Sharda and many others.
If anything can stand in the way of politics between two nations, it has to be their self-respect and pride, even if they are women of a brothel. Vidya Balan’s fierce avatar along with her female army are here to give you a chill down your spine, as they are ready to face even a historical event as big as the India-Pakistan partition, to safeguard their home. They give an intense glimpse into what can be expected in Vidya’s upcoming film Begum Jaan, in its first trailer that released today. And going by the looks of it, the film only promises some award-winning performances.
The trailer begins with Amitabh Bachchan’s baritone where he gives a backdrop of India-Pakistan Partition and how the LoC was meant to cross from within the brothel of Vidya, who plays the title role of Begum Jaan. As the trailer proceeds, we are introduced to the fearless and blunt Vidya who delivers some striking dialogues. We bet you will get goosebumps when you see Vidya saying, “Mahina humme ginna aata hai Sahab, hamesha laal karke jaata hai.” (We know what is a month end, it always comes and paints us red.)
While Vidya is set to deliver another award winning performance, supporting actors like Gauahar Khan and Pallavi Sharda are holding the film strongly with their fiery acts too. Begum Jaan boasts of women power, but what leaves us surprised is to see Chunkey pandey in a rare cunning role. He looks quite unrecognisable we must say.
Prior to the release of the trailer, the cast of Begum Jaan had an interaction with the audience through Facebook live chat. Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt had said this was the first film where so many female actors were sharing screen space.
