Manoj Bajpayee stuns in 'Aligarh' trailer

The trailer of the Hansal Mehta film ‘Aligarh’ is out and is every bit captivating. As a homosexual professor at the Aligarh Muslim University, actor Manoj Bajpayee simply yearns for attention and compels you to just sit back and observe and love him the way he is.

The film is based on the real life story of A.M.U. professor Dr Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras, who was suspended from his job after being caught in a sting operation while embracing a rickshaw-puller and was found dead under suspicious circumstances after successfully appealing his suspension. Portraying the character of the emotionally vulnerable professor who faces severe criticism, Manoj Bajpayee is back with yet another wonderful performance whereas ‘Kai Po Che’ actor Rajkummar Rao plays a journalist who unravels his real world.

From the makers of critically acclaimed films like ‘Citylights’, ‘Shahid’ and ‘NH10’, ‘Aligarh’ is a moving creation. The film was premiered at the 59th BFI London Film Festival and was widely appreciated.

Directed by Hansal Mehta, ‘Aligarh’ is set to release on February 26, 2016.
