After leaving the nation talking with its explosive teaser, the makers of Bandar have finally unveiled the trailer, and it takes you deeper into its world filled with twists, bold dialogues, amazing performances, and subtle humour. The film looks extremely engaging and unconventional in its approach to entertainment. With Bobby Deol collaborating with director Anurag Kashyap for the very first time, the actor has stepped into a truly unconventional role in an Anurag Kashyap film, delivering the kind of one-of-a-kind entertainment we have been waiting for. The trailer of Bandar dropped today, and in 2 minutes and a half, it does what most Hindi films take an entire first half to do: pull you in, knock you sideways, and refuse to tell you who to root for. While we see Bobby Deol attempting a very different role after his superhit streak with Animal and The Ba***ds of Bollywood, he is absolutely killing it.
