New Delhi: Actors Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra are sworn enemies in the first trailer of their upcoming film, Brothers, released by Dharma Productions on Twitter.
The almost three-minute long clip took Twitter by storm with the hashtag #BrothersTrailer trending within moments of its release.
Akshay plays David Fernandes, a school teacher who quits his job to become a full time mixed martial arts fighter to raise money for his ailing daughter. Sidharth Malhotra plays Akshay's younger brother Monty Fernandes, who seems resentful of Akshay's talent and feels overshadowed by him. He fiercely declares "David jaisa kabhi nahi bann sakta," when called 'incompetent' by his alcoholic father Jackie Shroff.
The two finally come face to face in the fighting ring and are pitted against each other in a tension-packed fight to the finish.
The emotional undertone is provided by glimpses of David and Monty's childhood memories and David's moments with his wife, played by Jacqueline Fernandez.
The trailer received instant thumbs-up from Bollywood.
Here's what they wrote on Twitter:
Directed by Karan Malhotra, Brothers is an official remake of the 2011 Hollywood movie Warrior.
Co-produced by Karan Johar, Hiroo Yash Johar and Endemol India, the film will hit screens on August 14.
