Intense Arjun Rampal central in first “Daddy” trailer

“Daddy”, the first look of which was released some months ago and created a stir, just released a trailer. Going by the look and feel of it, Hindustan Times predicts it to be one of the most talked-about films of the year.

The makers claim that the film is based on a true story based on mob boss-turned-politician Arun Gawli's life. Arjun Rampal is playing the lead in the film, which is directed by Ashim Ahluwalia.

The trailer starts with the poor condition of mill and factory workers in the early '70s, and how they turn to crime once the factories started getting shut. Three residents of Dagdi Chawl in Mumbai form a gang and soon become one of the most dreaded groups in the Mumbai region.

It covers the life of Arun Gawli who later became an MLA from the Chinchpokli area in Mumbai.

The trailer goes into Mumbai's criminal underbelly, and paints a gritty, tense picture. Arjun Rampal is the centerpiece of the trailer, taking a journey from a ruthless gangster to a sly politician making it into the parliament.

Daddy, which Arjun is also producing, is scheduled to hit the screens on July 21.
