Akshay Kumar wrapped up several films during the lockdown period and most of them are now awaiting releases. One such film is the period drama 'Prithviraj' based of the life of warrior king Prithviraj Chauhan. The project has been going through post production for quite a while now and now that it is just couple months away from the release, Akshay Kumar revealed the first poster and teaser of the film.

The teaser was shared by Akshay on his Twitter account and it has everything that one might expect from a period Bollywood film. The teaser was full of heavy glorifying dialogue, big military sequences and grand locations. It also gave a glimpse of Sanjay Dutt and Sonu Sood's characters. The film is going to release on 21st of January 2022.

Akshay captioned the teaser as, "A heroic story about pride and valour. Proud to play Samrat #Prithviraj Chauhan. Celebrate #Prithviraj with #YRF50 only at a big screen near you on 21st January’22.

While announcing the film two years ago, Akshay had written, "Elated to share about my 1st historical film on my birthday! Humbled to have the opportunity to play a hero I look up to for his valor and values- Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan in one of my biggest films #Prithviraj."
