Anubhav Sinha's sociopolitical thriller Bheed debuted its first trailer on Friday. Director Anubhav Sinha describes the worker migration that took place during the 2020 lockdown and makes a comparison to the 1947 Partition. Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar both appear in the movie.
The Bheed teaser features a monochromatic tone and quick shots of people swarming bus stops and railroad tracks. The visuals on the screen are not of the Partition of India in 1947; rather, they are from 2020, when state borders were sealed as a result of an increase in coronavirus cases across the nation. The voiceover, most likely performed by Manoj Bajpayee, explains this.

Bheed Teaser
'Ek aisa waqt jisne desh ko jadon se hila kar rakh diya tha' (A time which left the country in a bad position) is the story of the times when our country was divided. You might assume that we are referring to the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. However, you're wrong. The year 2020 is Ek Baar Phir Hua Tha Batwara. A voice in the ">teaser narrates, "Partition occurred once more in 2020.

Even though the teaser does not yet feature any of the movie's cast, it establishes the mood for the whole thing. Our darkest times are in black and white, according to Bheed's tagline. However, additional information about Rao and Pednekar's characters is also revealed in the first-look photos.
Rao will play a police inspector in the film, while Pednekar plays a doctor. In addition to them, Pankaj Kapur, Ashutosh Rana, Dia Mirza, Virendra Saxena, Aditya Shrivastava, Kritika Kamra, and Karan Pandit make up the ensemble cast for the film. Bheed, produced by T-Series and Benaras Mediaworks will release in theatres on March 24, 2023.
The new monochrome
">teaser for the upcoming movie
Bheed introduces the main characters after a moving video clip that teased the movie's subject,
Bheed. The new teaser begins with glimpses of how migrant workers travelled in crowded trains, buses, and even on foot to reach their villages during the government's nationwide lockdown, which completely halted all ongoing non-essential activities and deprived the poor of their means of subsistence.
Following that, there are brief glimpses of Kritika Kamra as a journalist at Ground Zero, Ashutosh Rana as a police officer driving a jeep, Rajkummar Rao as a police officer dressed in uniform and riding a bike, as well as additional glimpses of Dia Mirza on the verge of collapse, a concerned Bhumi Pednekar as a medical professional, and Pankaj Kapur. Rajkummar chases a person on foot as the captivating teaser comes to an end.
Bheed, according to Anubhav Sinha, is a tale of humanity's darkest moments, which fundamentally altered everything. In reflecting on why he chose to shoot the movie in black and white, he explained that the main goal was to show how the social disparity during India's Lockdown was visually strikingly similar to what people experienced during the 1947 India Partition. He continued by saying that this story is about people whose lives were abruptly altered and whose colours were lost when the country's border was drawn.
Twitter users' reactions to the teaser are divided. One of the viewers commented, "#AnubhavSinha is exaggerating things just to make the problems seem more sensual. Movies like "Bheed" are to blame for the unjustified animosity towards the Hindi film industry." Yet another user responded, "I'm curious about what topic #Pathaan sensationalised to earn Bollywood such 'unwarranted' vitriol. Why create films like #Bheed that deal with actual issues when propaganda can be created that will increase hate in the nation while praising them and enrich their pockets?"
