The trailer of Kajol, Prithviraj Sukumaran and Ibrahim Ali Khan-starrer ‘Sarzameen’ has been unveiled. The preview of “Sarzameen” shows Prithviraj Sukumaran as Vijay Menon, a man torn between his duty as a father and a soldier. We also see Kajol as Meher, a mother adamant about keeping her family together, and Ibrahim as Harman, a young man caught at a crossroads.
Spilling his excitement about being a part of the highly-awaited drama, Ibrahim shared, “Sarzameen is an emotional milestone I’ll carry forever. It challenged me in ways I never imagined, not just as an actor, but as a person too. My character is torn between love, loyalty, and truth, and navigating that emotional spectrum was the most intense learning curve.”
Speaking about his experience of sharing the screen with Kajol and Prithviraj, he added, “It was a treasure trove to see Kajol Ma’am and Prithviraj Sir in action, they are so gracious and effortless in their art and this pushed me to put my best foot forward. Kayoze too pushed me in all the right ways, he demanded depth, stillness, and vulnerability. I have put my heart and soul into Sarzameen and I hope the audiences enjoy watching the film. Stories like Sarzameen deserve to be seen and felt by everyone, everywhere.”
Helmed by the first-time director Kayoze Irani added, “Sarzameen is my first feature film as a director and I am incredibly proud of it. This story came to me like a whisper and quickly became a roar I couldn’t ignore. It’s emotional, it’s intense, and it asks big questions but at its heart, it’s about love, identity, and finding your place in a messy world. It is resonant of the world today and it captures the complexity of it. Directing Kajol Ma’am, Prithviraj Sir, and Ibrahim was a surreal experience, they brought so much vulnerability to their characters, and that made all the difference.”
‘Sarzameen’ is produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, and Apoorva Mehta under the banner of Dharma Productions. It will be released on JioHotstar on July 25.
