'Jhund' trailer: Amitabh Bachchan plays a football coach in Nagraj Manjule’s film

The trailer for Amitabh Bachchan's long-awaited sports drama ‘Jhund’ is out.

Directed by Nagraj Popatrao Manjule, ‘Jhund’ is inspired by the life of Vijay Barse, who is the founder of an NGO called Slum Soccers.

In the biopic, Amitabh plays the role of a football coach, adamant about transforming a group of underprivileged children from difficult backgrounds.

The trailer shows Vijay aka Big B trying to get the teens out from a life of crime to play in his football team. The trailer then follows how Vijay manages to unite the gang of rowdy, criminally-inclined teenagers into a team and transform the lives of the kids.

However, this journey is riddled with class divide, poverty and hesitant authorities.

Also starring Akash Thosar and Rinku Rajguru in pivotal roles, ‘Jhund’ is all set to release on March 4 in theatres.
