Batwara 1947 Trailer Breakdown: 3 Scenes & 5 Dialogues From Sunny Deol & Shabana Azmi’s Film That Hint At A Box Office Tsunami!

By Trisha Gaur

The grand unveiling of the Batwara 1947 trailer has completely taken the internet by storm, and for all the right reasons. Sunny Deol & Rajkumar Santoshi reunite nearly three decades after Ghatak, Damini, and Ghayal, for this Aamir Khan Productions’ film, and the trailer promises a box office tsunami!

Set against the violent backdrop of the 1947 Partition of India and Pakistan, the film is an adaptation of Asghar Wajahat’s play Jis Lahore Ni Vekhya, O Jamyai Nai. Personally, I have loved the trailer, and I cannot get over it despite watching it again and again! So I decided to break it down for you into three moments when this trailer turns absolute gold!

Arrival Of The Mirzas!

The trailer sets the story straight. A Muslim family in Lucknow decides to leave India and settle in the newly formed Pakistan! The displacement and the pain look real, and Sunny Deol & Preity Zinta look devastated with this displacement, making us live the pain of partition already!

Shabana Azmi’s Introduction!

Shabana Azmir’s introduction as Mai is heartbreaking. She is found in the newly allotted haveli to the Mirzas. But it is her haveli – a Hindu woman’s haveli in Pakistan!

The Faith Unshaken

The visual high point of the trailer comes when an aggressive mob attempts to storm Sikander Mirza’s newly allotted haveli in Lahore to forcibly evict the elderly Hindu woman. But rather, we see her praying to Lord Ram! Yes, praying to Lord Ram in Pakistan!
