The film’s special screening saw Vicky’s brother Sunny Kaushal, father Sham Kaushal and his mother Veena Kaushal in Mumbai. Sunny took to Instagram Stories to praise his brother’s performance. He wrote, “Just when I think you’ve outdone yourself, you surprise me yet again.”
‘Sam Bahadur’ is based on India’s first Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. He led the victory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war, which led to the creation of Bangladesh. His career in the army spanned over four decades and five wars. The movie hit the theatres on December 1. It is neck-to-neck with Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Animal’, which was released the same day.
