Mohenjo Daro trailer out: Hrithik Roshan shines in this Game of Thrones inspired epic drama

We've waited a long time for this one. The trailer for Hrithik Roshan's upcoming epic saga, Mohenjo Daro is finally here!

The three and a half minute teaser features stunning visual effects, action sequences and even a hint of romance. Watch it here:

Starring Roshan and Pooja Hegde in lead roles, the movie is set in pre-historic Indus Valley, in 2016 BC. The Bang Bang actor takes on the role of a young indigo farmer, Sarman who enters the city and meets Chaani (Hegde) the daughter of the Priest, predicted to be the Origin of a New Society.

Sarman, in his attempt to win Chaani’s love, uncovers the secrets nobody was ever supposed to know – about Chaani, about Mohenjo Daro and about his own past.

Co-written, co-produced and directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, the film is produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Sunita A Gowariker.

Gowariker’s movie took over three years to materialise. He took help from archaeologists who documented the discovery of Indus Valley Civilisation and ultimately, the film was shot in Bhuj and Mumbai with short schedules in Jabalpur and Thane.

Mohenjo Daro is set to release on August 12.
