Those who have read Manto knows that his writing was ahead of times yet talked about the particular phase with boldness, the trailer of Nandita Das’s upcoming film Manto is out where Nawazuddin Siddiqui is playing the title lead. Trailer seems to have both weak and strong points, from one aspect it’s good and from others it not something which can be termed as brilliant. Before reviewing the trailer let’s watch it to make your opinion;

Manto Trailer:

The trailer features Rishi Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Guraas Mann, Divya Dutta, Javed Akhtar along with Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The kick in the trailer is missing. Manto’s plus point had always been hard hitting writing and intense characterization, unfortunately from the trailer of Manto both are missing. Let’s see if Manto will be able to make a mark or not.

Bol ke lab azaad hai! This Independence Day, let’s celebrate the freedom that #Manto stood for. https://t.co/L5yYocUoct@mantofilm @HP #FilmStoc @Viacom18Movies @nanditadas @RasikaDugal @TahirRajBhasin @gurdasmaan @Javedakhtarjadu @SirPareshRawal @chintskap @MagicIfFilms

Nandita, Just saw the #Manto trailer. Awesome, gripping biopic and it can be easily predicted, fabulous performances from your brilliant team. The very best. When releasing??? https://t.co/O3cih5YnR0

#Bollywood: #Manto seems unimpressive, the art of incorporating intense and an meaningful content in #MantoTrailer seems missing. Let’s see what the film has to offer when it releases. https://t.co/vGusf5PEur
