6 Reasons to look forward to Hrithik Roshan'S Mohenjo Daro

The first trailer of Ashutosh Gowariker’s magnum opus — Mohenjo Daro has finally released, giving us a sneak peek into all the drama, romance, action, and adventure that await us.

While the story, which is set in the prehistoric times before Christ, Buddha, and even India itself, should be enough to lure you to the cinema halls, we give you a few more reasons to look forward to this epic romance-adventure. Take a look…

A tanned, grunge, rustic looking Hrithik Roshan is not a sight that you often get to see. Needless to say, the Greek God of Bollywood is taking his hotness to another level as the dusky indigo farmer—Sarman.

What’s more, we have heard that Hrithik will be seen doing some never seen before stunts in the film, one of which also includes a fisticuff with a giant CGI generated croc.

Moreover, it’s not just his machoism that’s captured, the director has also explored his passionate side in the film. Watch out for Hrithik’s crackling chemistry with the gorgeous Pooja Hegde.

In times, when Bollywood is mostly churning out one remake after the other, a fresh concept is a welcome change.

Yeah, many knowledgeable twitter historians are criticizing the look and feel of Mohenjo Daro, but come on guys, one needs to give it to Ashutosh for daring to make a film set in that time and era. And whoever said a director can’t take certain cinematic liberties?

The Jodhaa Akbar director apparently took 3 years to finish this script, which he built upon with the help of archaeologist who documented the discovery of Indus Valley.

There is little and superficial information available about the people in that civilisation, particularly about their lifestyle, food, and feelings, so let’s wait and watch how has Ashutosh depicted the ancient Indus Valley Civilization on the big screen.

Every time this director-musician duo has come together, they have created magic. Remember the soulful ‘Khwaja Mere Khwaja’ from Jodhaa AkbarChale Chalo’...

Well, going by their past track record one won’t be surprised to hear another timeless score by the master musician. Listen the background score from Mohenjo Daro in the above video.

Magnificent sets and breathtakingly beautiful visuals are other highlights of an Ashutosh Gowariker film.

Looking at the majestic sets designed by art director Sanjay Karole in the trailer of the film, we can’t wait to see what’s in store in the full-length feature.

Most Bollywood films fall short in the VFX departments. However, the makers have roped in Hollywood visual effects artist – Karen Goulekas to supervise the VFX on Mohenjo Daro.

Karen has worked on several Hollywood projects like The Day After Tomorrow, Godzilla, 10,000 BC among others. So, the VFX in Mohenjo Daro is certainly not going to be disappointing.

Now, a lady who is locking her lips with Hrithik Roshan can’t be overlooked right?

The model-turned-actress who was introduced on the internet last week as the film’s leading lady Chaani, created quite a furore soon after her poster was launched.

Irrespective of all the flak she is receiving for her attire in the film, one can’t deny that she is drop-dead gorgeous and looks promising in the trailer.
