Bharat trailer to be unveiled in the 3rd week of April

Starring superstar Salman Khan opposite Katrina Kaif, Bharat is one of the hotly anticipated films of 2019. The action entertainer, which began its production in mid-2018, wrapped up its final schedule recently and now the fans are waiting for its official trailer to come out soon.

During his recent interaction with media, when Salman Khan was asked about the release date of the trailer, he said it would be launched soon. Now, director Ali Abbas Zafar has confirmed that the trailer of Bharat will be unveiled in the 3rd week of April.


“Yes, the trailer of Bharat is locked. We are into the final stages of post-production. It will come out in the 3rd week of April. This one is a very special film. Nervous, anxious & excited ?. May God bless us all!” Zafar wrote on his Twitter handle.

Besides Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, Bharat also stars Tabu, Suniel Shetty, Jackie Shroff, Disha Patani, Nora Fatehi and Sunil Grover in significant roles. The movie reunites Khan and Kaif with hit director Ali Abbas Zafar again after the humongous success of their last film Tiger Zinda Hai (2017).

Produced by Vivek Agnihotri, Salman Khan and Bhushan Kumar, Bharat is slated to enter theatres on the auspicious day of Eid, 2019.

Yash says Ravana in Ramayana must connect with Western viewers as film eyes global audience

Highlights

  • Yash says he humanised Ravana to help global audiences relate to the character.
  • Asura designs in the first glimpse drew criticism for looking too Western-inspired.
  • Producer Namit Malhotra compares the film's tone to Lord of the Rings and Gladiator.
Yash, who plays the demon king Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, says his portrayal was shaped by one clear goal: making the character relatable beyond Indian audiences.
Speaking at CinemaCon in Las Vegas this week, where the film was presented alongside major Hollywood releases, the actor said he worked to strip away the purely mythological reading of the role.

"I have tried to internalise the whole essence of Ravana and tried to make him as human as possible at times," Yash told Reuters.

"It is important for people to relate to him, and since we have global ambitions, we need to make it familiar to a Western audience as well."
