The trailer for Prahaar: The Untold Story of Ujjwal Nikam was launched on Thursday at Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, one of the sites of the 26/11 attacks. Rajkummar Rao plays the public prosecutor who led the trial of Ajmal Kasab. The film's release has been moved from August 7 to October 16.
Directed by Avinash Arun and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, the cast includes Wamiqa Gabbi, Jaideep Ahlawat, Sikandar Kher and Marathi actor Lalit Prabhakar as Kasab. The trailer revisits the 2008 attacks that killed 175 people and the courtroom battle that followed. The film releases in cinemas on October 16.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both outlets treat the trailer launch as straight entertainment news.

Neither outlet questions the film's framing of Ujjwal Nikam as a hero. The coverage is promotional, reproducing the cast's statements verbatim. The film's release on October 16 is the key date to watch.
