Gul Makai's motion poster is out now

The first motion poster of Bollywood film Gul Makai inspired by the true story of Malala Yousafzai has just been revealed.

It features Reem Shaikh holding an open book with imagery of a school blowing up. And the voice over says, "This is about those days when the Taliban was destroying Pakistan and Afghanistan in the name of Jihad and religion. When from a very small village in Pakistan, a voice arose."

Gul Makai will chronicle the journey of Malala in Swat Valley to being the youngest Noble Peace Prize winner who stood up against terrorism, reports India Today.

Reem Shaikh, who previously starred in Amitabh Bachchan's Wazir, has also been seen in TV dramas like Ye Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. She is joined by Divya Dutta (who plays her mother) and the late Om Puri in the film's cast.

Gul Makai is being produced by Anand Kumar and directed by Amjad Khan. Its release date is not yet known.
