The teaser of the film had released two months back and it opened with a voice-over by megastar Amitabh Bachchan who narrates the story of Queen Manikarnika's rebellion against the British.

The movie is based on the life of the warrior queen of Jhansi and her struggles. It also features Atul Kulkarni as Tatya Tope, Ankita Lokhande as Jhalkarbai and Danny Denzongpa as Ghulam Ghaus Khan.
