‘Kesari Veer’ Trailer Out! Suniel Shetty, Sooraj Pancholi, Vivek Oberoi Face Off In an Epic Battle to Save Somnath Temple

April 29, 2025: The much-anticipated trailer of Kesari Veer, starring Sooraj Pancholi, Suniel Shetty, and Vivek Oberoi, was officially launched on Tuesday at a grand event in Mumbai. The film is all set to hit theatres on May 16, 2025, and if the trailer is anything to go by, audiences are in for an intense, high-octane historical spectacle.

Kesari Veer is a period action drama based on the life of Hamirji Gohil, a lesser-known but valiant warrior from Indian history. The trailer wastes no time in setting the tone—majestic visuals, powerful performances, and a gripping background score composed by Monty Sharma instantly pull viewers into its world. With dramatic battle sequences and emotionally charged moments, the trailer has drawn comparisons to epic hits like Baahubali and Chhaava, while still retaining a unique identity.

Sooraj Pancholi, who made his debut in 2015 with Hero, plays the lead role of Hamirji Gohil. Despite a promising start, Pancholi’s career was stalled due to the controversy surrounding the Jiah Khan case. Over the last decade, he has appeared in only three films. Now, with Kesari Veer, he seems ready to reclaim his place in the industry, delivering what could be a career-defining performance.

Opposite him is Vivek Oberoi, who plays the main antagonist and appears to be in top form, delivering a menacing yet magnetic screen presence. But it’s Suniel Shetty who truly steals the show. The veteran actor’s entry in the trailer evokes strong reactions, as he commands the screen with his powerful performance and regal charisma.

The film is directed by Prince Dhiman, who appears to have mounted Kesari Veer on a grand scale, complete with authentic set designs, war sequences, and emotionally resonant storytelling. The film promises to deliver both spectacle and substance—a combination that has recently proven successful at the box office. Earlier this year, Chhaava, another period film, collected a massive Rs. 600 crore, indicating a strong market for such content.

The trailer has already struck a chord with the audience, leaving many eagerly awaiting the film’s release. With a compelling narrative, strong performances, and high production value, Kesari Veer might just be the film that marks a major turning point in Sooraj Pancholi’s career.

As the countdown to May 16, 2025, begins, all eyes are on whether Kesari Veer can live up to the hype and make its mark at the box office.
