The theatrical trailer of Akshay Kumar's "Boss" has been released on the video-sharing site, YouTube.
The 3 minute 7 second video gives a glimpse of what to expect from the film. The trailer promises a commercial potboiler with action and comedy.
After playing a don's character in the recently-released "Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Dobaara" (OUATIMD), Akshay is back in his element - "Khiladi" form.
Directed by Anthony D'Souza, "Boss" has an interesting star cast, including Ronit Roy, Aditi Rao Hydari, Shiv Pandit, Mithun Chakraborty, Danny Denzongpa and Parikshit Sahni. Prabhu Deva and Sonakshi Sinha will make a special appearance in a song.
Apparently, Akshay plays the role of a gangster with Shiv Pandit as his brother and Mithun as their father. Ronit, who was last seen in "Student of the Year", plays a ruthless police officer. "Murder 3" actress Aditi Rao Hydari is paired opposite Shiv in the film.
