Vicky Kaushal shares a glimpse of Sam Bahadur: ‘To a life well lived…’

Vicky Kaushal announced Sam Bahadur in 2021 and wrapped it up in March this year. Sharing his experience of working on the biopic of a war hero, Vicky had shared, “Gratitude gratitude and only gratitude… to be a part of this process to depict the life of a true legend, to be a part of this team which truly gave it their all. So much I got to live, so much I got to learn… so much there is to bring to you all.

IT’s A FILM WRAP ON #SAMबहादुर !!! See you all in cinemas on 1st Dec 2023 (sic).”

Sam Bahadur is based on the life of Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Manekshaw, who crafted India’s greatest military victory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war that created just not history but also a new nation. His distinguished military career spanned four decades from the British era and through five wars, including the Second World War.

Other than Vicky Kaushal, the film also stars Sanya Malhotra as Sam Manekshaw’s wife Silloo, and Fatima Sana Shaikh as former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. The Meghna Gulzar directorial is scheduled to release in theatres on December 1, 2023.
