Joker - Official Trailer |
The trailer is 3m 36s long, but you can hit the start button and go to sleep for 1 min, as the initial footage is exclusively devoted to crediting those who bank rolled the film - Hari Om Productions, UTV Films and Three's Company.
The trailer gives a good insight into the film's plot that goes something like this.
Akshay Kumar, a NASA scientist of Indian origin visits the country on a project along with his partner Sonakshi Sinha.
They visit a village called Paglapur, a lost world with no electricity and water, inhabited by mentally challenged inmates who broke free from an asylum.
Seeing the plight of the village, Akshay approaches authorities, only to face ridicule because officially the village doesn't exist! it is not even marked on maps.
Akshay comes up with a plan to put the village on Indian maps, by faking an alien visit, crop circles, ET style visitors, et all.
As planned, the village hits the headlines. The media rolls in with OBVs, bringing along Minissha Lamba, a press reporter who is paired with Shreyas Talpade, a villager.
The press vehicles have to drive through the fields, since the village doesn't have a road.
The twist in the plot comes when it turns out that not all the aliens spotted are Halloween costume creations of Akshay.
The plot isn't bad, but the footage in the trailer doesn't live up to the promise of the plot.
The humor for one is insipid. For example, Akshay Kumar describing a UFO as looking like a Udta Firta Omelette!?
Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha are the big crowd pullers in the film and understandably they hog the footage, with Sonakshi mostly cavorting to some lusty drum beats.
