With the trailer of Tandav having released a few days ago, our curiosity about the political drama is at its peak. Here are five things that have piqued our interest to the maximum.


The Chanakyaniti


Tandav is inspired by and has adopted the Chanakya ideology in its core narrative. In the trailer, we hear Saif Ali Khan say, "If you can't be the king, be the king maker," leaving us with goosebumps. After all, the King is merely a puppet while the actual mastermind, the man pulling the strings is none other than the clever Chanakya. The trailer got us thinking about the ruler and the ruled in this maze of politics where everyone has their eyes set on sitting on the elusive throne.


It's a fight between Saif and Dimple

Saif And Dimple

Starring Dimple Kapadia, who marks her digital debut, and Saif Ali Khan, the riveting trailer gave us a glimpse of the competition and power play between the two superstars and has surely increased the excitement quotient. This is a different and unique role for the duo in which both are striving to become the ruler. So, who will become the next PM? We can't wait to find out.

The phenomenal cast

Apart from Saif Ali Khan and Dimple Kapadia, the Amazon Original series also includes talented actors like Sunil Grover, Mohd. Zeeshan Ayyub, Gauahar Khan, Kritika Kamra, Dino Morea amongst others. Having seen Grover in comic characters, this role of his came in as a huge surprise that shows what a powerhouse of talent the actor is. That devious laugh of his took absolutely no time to get us hooked.

A new era of storytelling

If there is one thing that we took away from the trailer, it's that it showed two different stories running simultaneously. The first is the gameplay between the politicians who have been in the maze of politics for a long time. The other story is about the zeal and enthusiasm that college students have to change the world and make their country a better place. Towards the end of the trailer, the two worlds can be seen colliding and blurring the lines that exist between good and bad. 

Ali Abbas Zafar delivering his absolute best

With Tandav, filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar marks his debut in the digital world. After being the mastermind behind movies like Sultan, Tiger Zinda Hai, and Bharat, his cinematic vision for Tandav will certainly be one to look out for.

So brace yourselves kyuki ab hoga Tandav!
