While the trailer of the Bollywood film doesn't give away much about the plot, it hints at a revenge/action thriller. Danish's wife is murdered, setting off a course of events and senior Bachchan, believes life is nothing but a game of chess. And that's what he teaches to Farhan -- his 'wazir' in the film.

Watch the trailer here:

The trailer is intense, full of action where performances completely stand out. It has some powerful dialogues, like the one that Mr. Bachchan delivers towards the end of the trailer:

"Khel khel mein, khel khel ke, khel khel ye a jayega..."
