Sardar Udham Singh was a personal journey for me, says Vicky Kaushal

In honour of Shaheed Bhagat Singh on his birth-anniversary, Amazon Prime Video launches the official teaser of the much-awaited untold story of a freedom fighter.

The event for the trailer launch was held both on the online and offline medium from Mumbai.

In what looks like a glance into a riveting storyline, Amazon Prime Video launched the teaser of Amazon Original Movie Sardar Udham headlined by Vicky Kaushal. Directed by Shoojit Sircar, the Amazon Original Movie is produced by Ronnie Lahiri and Sheel Kumar and is set to release on Amazon Prime Video during Dussehra on 16th October 2021.

 

Starring Vicky Kaushal in and as Sardar Udham and directed by Shoojit Sircar, this Amazon Original Movie is produced by Rising Sun Films in collaboration with Kino Works

 

“I have lived this film”, said Shoojit Sircar the director of the film.

 

The teaser opens with the protagonist meticulously piecing together a document. The focus shifts to a stack of passports, each reflecting a different name Ude Singh, Frank Brazil, Sher Singh, with the latest one, with ‘Udham Singh’ being scrawled across it, being added to the pile. 

 

“There are not many documents available on how Sardar Udham went to London. I was deeply affected by the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy”, added Sircar. 

 

Zooming into a picture of Vicky Kaushal who essays the character of Sardar Udham Singh in the end, the teaser video sets the tone for an intriguing and engrossing tale of a patriot with many aliases but with a single mission in life – to avenge India’s most gruesome tragedy.

 

“I don’t feel the pain, I don’t get sleep and that’s Udham Singh”, said the actor. 

 

Chronicling the lesser-known story of the legendary Indian revolutionary, Sardar Udham Singh, the film delves deep into his boundless courage to avenge the death of his countrymen, in an event that shook the British Empire. 

 

“Sardar Udham was a personal journey for me”, said Vicky.

 

During the press conference, the actor also added, ” Sardar Udham Singh was an emotional journey and very big responsibility for me”, said Vicky Kaushal. The movie is a bio on Sardar Udham Singh, it’s a biopic of his ideology”.

 

“Jallianwala Bagh massacre had hit everyone across the globe. It is a story of resilience, bravery, and patience”. Sardar Udham Singh is not a character widely documented. I have tried to do justice to my character in the film. The role called for a lot of mental preparation than physical preparation to get into the character of  Udham Singh”, said Vicky Kaushal.
