Shershaah trailer: Sidharth Malhotra as Captain Vikram Batra will make you say 'Dil Maange More'

The first trailer of Sidharth Malhotra starrer Shershaah is here. The best part about the three minute clip is Sidharth's dialogues as Captain Vikram Batra.

His dialogues are penned in a way that we can hear how full-of-life Captain Vikram Batra really is. Whether "Apne desh se bada koi dharam nahi hota (there is no religion bigger than your own country)," "Fikar na kar jaani, main tiranga lehra kar aaunga nahi toh usme lipat ke aaunga. Lekin aaunga zarur haan. (Don't worry sweetheart, I'll either hoist the flag or come wrapped in it. I'll come back for sure though)," or his last line, "Yeh Dil Maange More sir (I want to experience more, sir)," the lines are something that will stay with you after the video.

Sidharth expresses with his eyes too, which is a much-welcomed surprise in the trailer.

Watch it here:

Shershaah is based on the true story of Captain Vikram Batra, who was martyred during the Kargil war of 1999. He was awarded the highest and most prestigious valour of India, the Param Vir Chakra, soon after his demise.

Owing to Captain Vikram Batra's spirit and help during the war, India could flush out troops from the Pakistani army who had infiltrated into Kashmir.

The war is among one of the most disastrous till date, where various bodies went missing from both the Pakistani and Indian military.

While the operation was called Operation Safed Sagar, Captain Vikram Batra was given the codename Shershaah.

Directed by Vishu Varadhan, Shershaah stars Kiara Advani as the female lead. It also stars Ankita Goraya, Shiv Pandit, Sahil Vaid, Javed Jaffrey, Mir Sarwar, Sharaf Figar, Manmeet Kaur, Pawan Chopra and Himanshoo Malhotra in pivotal roles.

An Amazon Prime Original movie, Shershaah is produced by Karan Johar and Shabbir Boxwala under Dharma Productions. The movie will start streaming from August 12.
