'Babli Bouncer' trailer: Tamannaah Bhatia is bubbly but bold
We've finally got a glimpse into Tamannaah Bhatia's upcoming comedy-drama flick Babli Bouncer! The film is touted to be a fictional coming-of-age story about a female bouncer set in the real "bouncer town" of India, Asola-Fatehpur Beri. Moreover, the film will explore an all-new avatar of the actor who will essay one of her most varied characters. Let's take a look at the trailer.
Why does this story matter?
Directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, the film draws its inspiration from an unusual storyline and is supposed to be a feel-good story with a slight "slice-of-life comedic tone." The film revolves around the titular protagonist who chooses to be a bouncer and takes us on a journey to explore various aspects of her profession, which is mostly dominated by men.
In a male-dominated profession, Babli emerges as the only exception
The trailer shows an average day in the village of Fatehpur Beri where men are seen wrestling and exercising to build their bodies like bouncers. We see Bhatia at a store, asking for medicine for a headache and two packets of condoms. Her mother doesn't seem to be too supportive but her father is proud that she can lift more than any male bodybuilder.
Bubbly Babli doesn't shy away from throwing some serious punches
The second half of the trailer shows a complete transition in Babli's (Bhatia) personality when she leaves the village to avoid getting married. She goes to Delhi in search of a job and becomes a lady bouncer at a club. From the light-hearted, humorous tone, we see a complete switchover where Babli fights off a group of men in order to save a girl.
