Chambal seems to be making a comeback to Bollywood. Before Sushant Singh Rajput’s Sonchiriya comes Phamous, telling the tale of four passionate men who grapple with each other against the dramatic terrains of Chambal.
The makers have released a new poster of the film.
Phamous, with a stellar cast of Jimmy Sheirgill, Kay Kay, Pankaj Tripathi, Jackie Shroff, Shriya Saran and Mahie Gill, has a distinct 80s feel. The four men are consumed by different pursuits - power, love, lust and revenge, the trailer tells us. The result? A lot of guns going off along with some punchlines.
Sheirgill and Tripathi are easily the showstealers - Tripathi’s sleazy politician shines and how - while Kay Kay does look a little OTT.
Check out the trailer here:
Phamous is directed by Karan Lalit Bhutani and is set to release on 1 June. The cast and crew launched the trailer in full regalia, complete with jeep and rifles.
