The trailer of Disney+ Hotstar’s upcoming series Aar Ya Paar starring Aditya Rawal, Patralekha, Sumeet Vyas and Ashish Vidyarthi was released today.
The trailer tells the story of a fictional Degohati tribe on which trouble is looming. A capitalist (Ashish Vidyarthi) wants to capture their land as it is rich in uranium. He even orders to poison the river, from which the tribe draws water, to make them bow down to their demands. He also gets their villages burned and finally Sarju (Aditya Rawal), an able archer from the tribe, decides to join the capitalists and serve them as an assassin to safeguard his people. Sumeet Vyas plays a cop who is on the heels of Sarju after he starts doing contract killings.
Talking about the show, Aditya Rawal said: "As a character, Sarju wants to protect his land and his people and will go to any length to accomplish his goal. Different shades of the character emerge as he deals with one challenge after another."
