Vicky Kaushal’s brother Sunny Kaushal who was last seen in the OTT project Shiddat co-starring Radhika Madan is set to make his debut on the big screen.

The two-minute-fifty-nine-second trailer was set in the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh and it focuses on the issue of reservation.
As the trailer begins it showcases Sunny Kaushal in the role of a middle-class UP boy who aspires to be an IAS officer but ends up quitting his dream to fight against reservation. Amid this, we also see Sunny’s romance blossoming with Nushrat Bharucha. Vijay Verma is seen in the role of an influential student leader, who controls college politics.

Speaking about Hurdang, the movie is slated to release on April 8 this year.
For the unversed, in 1990, India was rocked by protests against the implementation of the Mandal Commission’s recommendation of a 27 per cent quota in government jobs and public universities for Other Backward Classes (OBCs). Hurdang’s writer-director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat has adapted the story in the romantic-drama that shows what transpired in those few months.
