The date of July 13, 2002, is a date when the then cricket captain Sourav Ganguly and his young team won the NatWest series and gave India a chance to celebrate. That's where director-Abhinav Dev has tried to show the impact of this fun cricket captain on the country's young minds through his upcoming sports-docu drama second. Meanwhile, the first poster of the film has come out. This is a story narrated via a young girl, who chooses a different path to her freedom.
As for the film, it is a social-sports drama that reflects the freedom of courage and expression through an event that gave Indians a sense of liberation. Created in the 90s and early 2000s, the story brings together two different stories. What's special in the film is that it's inspired by Captain Ganguly waving out t-shirts at London's Lord's Stadium, which gave thousands of Indians a chance to be proud.
"Sourav Ganguly memorialized the end of an era," says director Abhinav Dev. His one step in the NatWest Final was so powerful that we had a major change in our thinking. The film runs with the life of a girl who comes from a patriarchal family with social obligations. The poster of the film is just the first look. There are many more layers that viewers will understand once they see the trailer."
The lead roles in the film are actress Plabita Borthakur (PK, Lipstick Under My Burqa) and Ankur Vikal (Slumdog Millionaire).
