On Monday, Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan unveiled the trailer for the upcoming film Pushtaini, marking the directorial debut of his acting coach, Vinod Rawat. Roshan shared the trailer on Instagram along with a detailed note. He expressed his initial skepticism about the project, recalling how Rawat, amidst the lockdown, planned to shoot in Uttarakhand with his family as the cast due to limited funds. Despite financial constraints and COVID-19 setbacks, Rawat persisted, and Roshan was ultimately moved by the completed film. The trailer features Rawat as Bhuppi, a struggling actor caught in a scandal, leading him back to his hometown. Rajkummar Rao makes a special appearance in the film, which is written by Rawat and Rita Heer and is set to release on June 21.
