Martin trailer
Yesterday, the makers of 'Martin' dropped the electrifying trailer featuring superstar Dhruva Sarja in a heroic role. The movie targets the deeply emotional themes of India and Pakistan and promises to be a gripping tale of an Indian Army officer's quest for identity. The much-anticipated trailer launch happened in Mumbai, where the superstar actor arrived in a rickshaw and was seen saying, "I was running out of time. It doesn't matter whether I come by car or auto. I wanted to be on time. I didn't want anybody to wait for me."
The trailer opens with the plot setup, where a strong heroic âdeshbhakt' lands in Pakistan. Now the entire army wants to kill him and bury him under Pakistani soil. The antagonist can be seen saying, "Bury him and his Indian tattoo under this soil."
Producer Uday Mehta has emphasized the film's ambitious global reach, stating, "Instead of the traditional approach where pan-India films would release internationally several months later, Martin aims for a coordinated global launch. The film will be released in Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Hindi, with additional releases planned in Bengali, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, and Spanish."
Dhruva Sarja expressed his confidence in the film's global appeal, noting, "While many films today are marketed as pan-India, this release in multiple foreign languages will be highly beneficial for Martin. It's an action-packed entertainer with dramatic elements that make it universally appealing."
