Vivek Oberoi, Rohit Roy starrer short film ‘Verses Of War’ trailer goes live

“Ek fauji jab jeeta hai toh poori shiddat se jeeta hai, aur jab marta hai toh poori izzat se marta hai…” – these lines recited by Vivek Oberoi in the trailer of ‘Verses Of War’ gives us a good idea of what we can expect from this short film directed by Prasad Kadam and Produced by FNP Media.

In the film, Vivek plays a brave soldier from the Indian army who loves to write and recite poems. The trailer gives us an idea that ‘Verses Of War’, unlike most other short films, has been mounted on a lavish scale. We see elaborate action scenes, well-designed sets, and visuals that redefine opulence.

Talking about his character, Vivek Oberoi says, “Playing an Indian army officer was a long-standing dream for me and finally, with this film I got to realize it. It’s been an honor playing a soldier and through this film, I wish to pay a tribute to all those brave men who make so many sacrifices just to keep us safe. ‘Verses Of War’ will always have a special place in my filmography. It’s a film that I will always be proud of.”

What makes the film unique is the fact that it shows an Indian army officer and a Pakistani army officer (played by Rohit Bose Roy) having conversations about war and peace. Their common love for poetry forges a bond between these two officers, across borders, from India and Pakistan.

Says, Rohit Bose Roy, “Love for one’s nation is paramount for every soldier. But when you transcend boundaries for one’s respect & honor, is when you feel sheer bliss & contended.” He adds, “Elated to be part of Verses Of War, truly proud.”

Says Prasad Kadam, “I am very happy with the final outcome of the film, as the film on the Indian army needed to be made with a certain amount of sensitivity, which I am sure, is there.”
