The much-awaited trailer for Azaad was recently released, sparking curiosity and excitement among fans. Directed by Abhishek Kapoor, this movie promises a mix of action, drama, and emotion, but its plot remains somewhat mysterious. The trailer not only introduces the newcomers, Aaman Devgn (Ajay Devgn’s nephew) and Rasha Thadani (Raveena Tandon’s daughter), but also focuses heavily on a majestic black horse.
Azaad’s Story and Characters
In Azaad, Ajay Devgn plays a rebellious dacoit, whose bond with a loyal horse is central to the story. The trailer highlights this special relationship, showing how the horse stands by Ajay’s character. As the narrative progresses, we meet Aaman Devgn’s character, a young man who looks up to Ajay’s character as a role model. Eventually, he joins him on a thrilling journey.
Rasha Thadani, who makes her debut in Bollywood with this film, plays a character from a royal family, adding another layer to the complex storyline. Diana Penty, also featured in the film, will play Ajay’s love interest, though she only makes a brief appearance in the trailer.
A Trailer That Leaves More Questions Than Answers
While the trailer is action-packed and full of energy, it doesn’t provide much clarity about the film’s true theme. Is the movie focused on the strong bond between a young boy and the horse? Or is it a love story between Rasha’s royal character and Aaman’s ‘stable boy’? There is also the possibility that the film is about the resistance against British colonial rule or the exploitative zamindari system. The trailer even hints at the idea of rebellion, with characters fighting against the oppressive system.
The trailer blends these various themes, creating a lot of excitement but also leaving the audience with many questions about the true nature of the film’s plot. The diverse mix of dance, drama, and action adds to the anticipation but doesn’t reveal the core message of the film.
A Glimpse of New Talent
Aside from the seasoned Ajay Devgn, Azaad introduces fresh faces to Bollywood. Rasha Thadani is especially excited about her debut project. She shared her excitement, saying, “Azaad is very special to me as it’s my first project. I can’t be more grateful to Abhishek sir for giving me this opportunity and believing in me.” Aaman Devgn also expressed his gratitude, saying, “It’s a dream come true, and I’m excited for everyone to experience the film.”
For director Abhishek Kapoor, Azaad is the culmination of a vision he’s long had. He described the film as a celebration of the transformative connection between humans and animals. He believes that the universal themes of love, loyalty, and courage will resonate with audiences across all age groups.
What We Can Expect From Azaad
The film promises to be an emotional and action-packed ride. Set in pre-independence India, Azaad revolves around a 19-year-old boy named Govind and his deep bond with a horse. The story touches on themes of rebellion, the fight against the zamindari system, and the role of dacoits. With a stellar cast, including Ajay Devgn, and fresh talent like Aaman and Rasha, Azaad is sure to capture the attention of audiences when it releases on January 17.
Produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Pragya Kapoor, Azaad is expected to leave a lasting impact with its powerful story of courage, love, and the unbreakable bond between humans and animals.
