'Sam Bahadur' trailer: Vicky Kaushal is impressive in Sam Manekshaw's fierce avatar | watch

The much-awaited trailer of Vicky Kaushal starrer 'Sam Bahadur' has been released. The period film stars Vicky as Sam Manekshaw, the charismatic war hero, and Fatima Sana Shaikh as late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Sam Bahadur also features Sanya Malhotra as Silloo, Sam's wife.

Vicky, who last collaborated with filmmaker Meghna Gulzar on the spy thriller film 'Raazi', transforms into Sam Manekshaw, complete with his distinctive handlebar moustache, in the film.

The trailer builds on the teaser released last month and depicts Vicky Kaushal bring to life every inch of India's first Field Marshal. He's seen giving a tough talk to his fellow armymen, while holding his own against several high-profile leaders, including Indira Gandhi, the then-prime minister. The film is set in the late 1960s and early '70s.

Sam Bahadur is based on the life of India’s first Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. His career in the army spanned over four decades and five wars. He was the first Indian Army officer to be promoted to the rank of Field Marshal and he lead the victory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war, which led to the creation of Bangladesh.

'Sam Bahadur' will release theatrically on December 1.
