The wait for a full look at Emraan Hashmi’s Gunmaaster G9 is almost over. The makers have locked Wednesday, November 11 for the theatrical trailer, which will be unveiled at a grand launch event at the City Pride multiplex in Pune’s Kothrud, with the 2-minute-40-second cut dropping online later the same day. The trailer has already received an ‘A’ certificate from the censor board, a sign of the film’s hard-edged action.
Directed by Aditya Datt, Gunmaaster G9 stars Hashmi as Eshwar, a seemingly ordinary dairy farm owner with a dangerous side, alongside Genelia Deshmukh and Aparshakti Khurana, with Abhishek Singh also featuring. The film is being pitched as a musical action entertainer, and the campaign has leaned heavily on its music, with three Himesh Reshammiya tracks — ‘Afsaana Banaaya Aapne’, ‘Do Din Ki Zindagi’ and ‘Dard-E-Dil Dard-E-Jigar’ — already out.
The project also marks a reunion two decades in the making, bringing Hashmi and Reshammiya back together in the romantic-action space that defined their early-2000s hits. PEN Marudhar will release the film across India and Phars Films will handle overseas markets when it opens worldwide on November 27.
