Drenched in patriotism, the new teaser of Akshay Kumar’s ‘Gold’ is finally here, and it is giving everyone goosebumps and a surge of patriotism as well. Saying that we are impressed would be an understatement because by far, this is the best movie teaser we have seen this year.

The teaser begins with a statement which says, “Please stand up for the national anthem”. While most of us wait to hear the familiar strains of our National Anthem, it begins with the British anthem ‘God Save The Queen’ instead. First few seconds and we are already unsettled.
The 54-second clip clearly sets the fact straight showing how for 200 years, Indians were being forced to stand for the British national anthem, taking us back to colonial India and the British oppression.

Soon we get a glimpse of Akshay Kumar and we just can’t help but whistle. With a burning passion in his eyes, he is seen taking out the Indian national flag and that gives us an idea of his goal. The teaser then focuses on ‘one man’s dream’ that ‘made the British stand up for our anthem’.

Despite us already knowing the basic theme of the story, which is freedom from British oppression, there still is a sense of mystery as to how this one man will get the gold for India.. The teaser ends with “Vande Mataram” leaving us with millions of thoughts and unsaid emotions.

For those of you who don’t know what ‘Gold’ is all about, it is the story of a Bengali hockey player, who wants to win a gold medal for India, during the British rule.
Taking to Twitter Akshay Kumar shared the new teaser on the public’s demand.

If the teaser alone has managed to shake us to our very core, we can only wonder what the trailer has in store for us.
Directed by Reema Kagti, the film traces the journey of a hockey player and talks about what it meant to be patriotic during the pre-independence era. This will also be TV actor Mouni Roy’s Bollywood debut.

Earlier, it was being said that ‘Gold’ is a biopic on former hockey player Balbir Singh Sr. However, clearing the air, Producer Ritesh Sidhwani stated in an interview that, “It is not a biopic. It is a completely fictional story but it is set against a real backdrop between 1933-48 India about what the country was, the sports…about hockey. It is not based on any character.”
