After the roaring first look creating a stir on social media and a teaser announcing the power-packed star cast, the highly anticipated trailer of Anubhav Sinha's Black and White 'Bheed' is out now. The trailer is attached to the film 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar'. The enthusiasm of the audience to see the film has elevated tremendously after watching the trailer that promises to be a thought provoking and unique cinematic experience. The film depicts the hard-hitting reality of social disparity at the times when borders were drawn within the country.

Director Anubhav Sinha shares, "'Bheed' is a very special film, it is a story that needs to be told with honesty and compassion. The film is shot in black and white because I wanted to capture the pulse of our nation at the time when we were going through a very difficult period in the lockdown. As we were coping with different issues, there was a section of our society that was neglected and invisible to us. 'Bheed' is trying to bring their story to light and to make them visible to a society that has forgotten them."
