A Defiant Tribute to the Ultimate Turning Point of Indian Cricket
The official first-look poster zeroes in on arguably the most passionate, culturally defining image in Indian sports history—Sourav Ganguly’s iconic, shirtless jersey-waving celebration at the Lord's balcony after India's historic 2002 NatWest Trophy victory against England.
The Essence of Dada: More than just a standard sports biopic, the poster perfectly encapsulates the raw defiance, confidence, and fearless aggression that Ganguly injected into the Indian team. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane, the movie chronicles the extraordinary, grit-filled journey of a leader who didn't just play the game, but completely rewrote its rules, inspiring a generation to fight back on foreign soil.
