There was nothing ordinary about the event where
Dilwale‘s
trailer was released. In fact it was nothing short of grand. Crowds of
fans and media gathered in Mumbai and waited for hours for the cast and
crew of the film to unveil the trailer.
The grandiose display of
designer cars at the trailer launch may have won the hearts of many, but
did the trailer live up to the hype?

The
promo starts with SRK and Kajol posing in scenic locations and ends
with Shah Rukh telling the love of his life (Kajol obviously) not to
show her face to him again or he’ll kill her.
The other couple,
Varun and Kriti also share a complex equation. Varun plays SRK’s younger
brother, and it appears that during the course of the film he is made
to choose between his brother and his lover (Kriti).

The
series of events that follow in the trailer suggest that the film is
packed with action and romance with a tinge of comedy to break free from
the tension.
While the trailer doesn’t shed much light on the
storyline, the repetitive car and action scenes become predictable.
However that hasn’t stopped people from watching the highly anticipated
film’s trailer. In less than 12 hours, the trailer has already crossed a
million views on YouTube.
SRK could hardly contain his excitement at the trailer launch. “
Dilwale
was a wonderful filmmaking experience and the results will show on
screen. Never enjoyed myself more while shooting for a film, right from
reuniting with Kajol after a long gap to shooting the heavy duty action
sequences, it was all a delight. I’m glad to be sharing the trailer with
you guys as it will give you a perfect taste of the fun family film
that Rohit Shetty has made!” he said, according to a press release.

It seems like fans are not the only ones who were excited about the
DDLJ jodi coming together. Even Kajol and SRK were just as eager to work with each other after a long hiatus. “
Dilwale
is an extremely special film. Not only for what it offers but also
because of the people I have worked with here. I had a great time
working on the film, especially with Shah Rukh, as well as Rohit. I
think everybody is gonna have a great time watching it as we had a great
time making it,” said Kajol.

Varun
Dhawan couldn’t believe his luck and was ecstatic to have worked
alongside King Khan and Kajol. “I have always been a big Rohit Shetty
fan. But never did I expect to do a Rohit shetty film with Shah Rukh sir
and Kajol ma’am. They are amazing actors and I’m the first from
my generation to have worked with them.
Dilwale is a coming
together of all generations. It is the biggest family film ever made in
Indian cinema, and I feel lucky to be a part of it,” he said.

up the first look, I can’t wait for the release of the film. It has
been a great learning experience for me and I truly wish all our efforts
