Mohenjo Daro Trailer

One of the most awaited trailers of 2016 is out. Featuring Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan and Pooja Hegde in the lead, Mohenjo Daro has been directed by Ashutosh Gowarikar – who has previously directed films like the Oscar nominated ‘Lagaan’, ‘Swades’ and ‘Jodhaa Akbar’.

The music has been composed by A.R. Rahman, lyrics have been penned by Javed Akhtar.

Ashutosh Gowarikar’s press statement:

“Mohenjo Daro is not just another historical; it’s pretty much even before history begins. It’s literally going back in the womb of time. It’s a world that I am most fascinated with — who were the people, how did they live, what was the society like, are some of the questions which always intrigued me. I am thankful that I got this opportunity to explore that world through cinema”

“Since this was a make believe world so when I started my research, during the initial phase, I came across Mr. Jonathan Mark Kenoyer’s books “Ancient India: Land of Mystery” and “Excavations at Mohenjo Daro”. I immediately got in touch with Mr. Kenoyer, Dept. of Anthropology, University of Wisconsin to seek his assistance. He has worked at the Mohenjo Daro excavation site for the past 35 years. To my good fortune, he agreed to participate to help me realize the true potential of the story on film. He then suggested to me other esteemed names who could give me inputs on the undeciphered Sindhu script, culture, the town planning and any and every other aspect that seems necessary. They were -R. S. Bisht, Ex-Director, ASI; Prof. Vasant Shinde Jt. Director, Puna University; Dr. P. Ajithprasad, Dept. of Archaeology and Ancient History, MSU, Baroda; K. Krishnan, Dept. of Archaeology, MSU, Baroda; and V.N.Prabhakar, Deputy Superintending Archaeologist, Aurangabad. It was wonderful that they could impart their study, analysis and knowledge to this project.”

  • Waited for 2 yrs for this movie..cant wait till 12th August…oh my god…..this movie will be epic…..

  • I am a true Hrithik fan. Was probably expecting some historical trivia in the trailer, slightly disappointed, yet looking forward to the movie. All the best Hrithik.

  • MD trailer summary;
    Hero in wonderland finds his love along with a villain. So fight starts…n hero will win. A typical love store but in mohenjodaro time…ok

  • One of the best trailer of the year (like Fan,Sulthan and Airlift)

    Before trailer my expectation for this movie was Sky high and bcz of that the chance for disappoint was higher.

    But Hrithik made it guyzzzz. Its just absolutely stunning…..

  • Felt like a big budget Hollywood movie.. Only Hrithik can do such epic , once in a lifetime movies.

    Take a bow Hrithik, you are simply the best.

  • Lot of expectation but the spark is missing from the trailer. Kabir Bedi as villain wrong choice , trailer show the movie is too slow

  • MOHENJO DARO is this year’s Great event

    Outstanding Trailer will make it No.1 film of this in term as both Box Office and Great Film

  • Well well well this was not just awaited by Hrithik fans but many other neutral fans too.

    The movie is looking EPIC and truly awesome. A movie made on a grand scale and looking quite different from the routine movies we see normally. Movie is looking very impressive.

    Hrithik as always is looking superb and amazing.

    Now will wait for the songs. Music shall be great too as it is composed by A R Rehman.

  • This doesn’t look 5000 BC at all . This looks like a period drama set in 19th Century . But Hrithik has done well . Best of Luck !

  • Out of the world….mind blowing…
    Can’t describe in words….records are in danger….hr does it again

  • @Jai and you moron should retire from Life….Haha butt-hurt hater. Wait and see how Hrithik will smash box office records.

  • What a CRAP Trailer, trust me this is Most Disappointing Trailer of 2016, “Khoda Pahad Nikla Chuha”

    It gives me feeling of Agnipath movie, same old story even an older time period movie….

  • From the director of Lagaan and Jodha-Akbar but not mentioned Swades. Haha… Big insult to shahruk khan.

  • Scale wise, it looks comparable to more expensive Baahubali! Now, I can understand the inside trade reports of its trailer, Rustom can be seriously hurt by this tsunami, I hope they pre-pone and let MohenjoDaro have a much deserved solo release.
