Fighter Teaser: Siddharth Anand, who previously collaborated with Hrithik Roshan in War and Deepika Padukone in the blockbuster Pathaan, is set to soar to new heights with their upcoming aerial action film, Fighter.
Patriotic fervor takes flight at jet speed in Fighter’s teaser, released on Friday. The highly anticipated aerial actioner, featuring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor, offers a cinematic journey through its world in the slightly over-a-minute teaser.
The teaser elevates viewers to breathtaking heights, introducing the film’s universe with jets in flight, slow-motion entry shots, aviator glasses, pulsating Vishal-Shekhar music, aerial stunts, hints of tragedy, and an assured victory. The visual spectacle includes a money shot of Hrithik with the Indian flag, ensuring a patriotic touch.
Fighter’s teaser strategically unveils glimpses of the film’s world, primarily focusing on sequences featuring the three lead characters in uniform, accompanied by meticulously executed aerial action and impressive 3D visuals, showcased during the teaser’s big-screen presentation. Additional visuals, briefly glimpsed through quick-cut shots, seem to align with Siddharth Anand’s signature style—a blend of flair and aesthetics.
Hrithik Roshan takes on the role of Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania (call sign: Patty), while Deepika Padukone portrays Squadron Leader Minal Rathore. Anil Kapoor, currently starring in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, embodies the character of Group Captain Rakesh Jai Singh, also known by his call sign Rocky.
Fighter marks the reunion of Siddharth and Hrithik after their collaborations on Bang Bang and War, the latter being a major milestone in the actor’s career. The film also brings back filmmaker Siddharth Anand and Deepika Padukone, who previously worked together on Bachna Ae Haseeno and Pathaan.
Produced by Viacom18 Studios and Marflix Pictures, Fighter is set to hit theaters on January 25, 2024, just ahead of Republic Day.
