The trailer of the upcoming action drama film Pratap, starring Amit Sadh and Esha Deol, has been unveiled, offering a glimpse into a story that goes beyond the life of a police officer to explore the emotional struggles of his family. Speaking to ANI, Amit Sadh opened up about the film’s narrative, his character and the aspects that made the project special for them. Talking about what drew him to the film, Amit Sadh said, “I think as an actor, we always look for a challenge. And if you talk about me, I always like characters who have a lot of complexity. I like the fragility, the complexity of human beings, and where your psychology, your principles, your value system are questioned. I like such characters because they are very close to a person's life.”

 

The actor added that the script by director Sachin Saraf stood out for its distinct approach and the opportunity it offered him to explore a different character. “I felt that he is different and he will challenge me. And a new emotion, a new portrayal, a new body language, in finding, doing, expressing, there will be a challenge,” he said. Recalling his first meeting with the director, Amit spoke about how Sachin wanted him to move away from the police officer he had portrayed in Breathe. “I have done a show before, Breathe, in which I played Sawant, which ran for three seasons and received a lot of love. And when I met Sachin sir for the first time, he told me, ‘I don't want the one from Breathe with me.’ So I thought, no, no, it's good, you did very well.

 

You were very good, but he is a different cop. And that is where our journey started, to find where the story leads,” he shared. Amit also highlighted the personal lives of people in uniform, saying, “When we make films about the army, special forces, commandos and women in the police force, we often overlook their families. We show their bravery and sacrifices, but rarely explore their lives beyond the uniform.” The film features Esha Deol alongside an accomplished ensemble cast.Written and directed by Sachin Saraf, Pratap also stars Seema Biswas, Tigmanshu Dhulia and Milind Gunaji. The film is scheduled to release in on November 20, 2026. n
