    "I want everyone to watch the trailer. I am dying to show it to my family but I have told them that I will only show it to them on the day of the trailer launch," Vidya said here days ahead of the trailer's unveiling on March 14.
     
    Produced by Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt, the film is helmed by National Award winner Srijit Mukherji.
     
    Set against the backdrop of Partition, the high-voltage drama, a Hindi adaptation of Mukherji's stellar Bengali offering "Rajkahini", is a story of survivors who defy nations to save their homes.
