Lakadbaggha Trailer: Anshuman Jha, Ridhi Dogra, Milind Soman's Film Will Appeal to Every Dog Lover

The trailer of India’s first film, Lakadbaggha, about an animal lover vigilante is out now. The action-thriller, which stars Anshuman Jha, Ridhi Dogra, Milind Soman and Paresh Pahuja in principal roles and is directed by Victor Mukherjee, is slated to release across on 13th January 2023.

Lakadbaggha packs a punch with raw hand to hand combat action and martial arts but with a soul & purpose. The central character of the film, Arjun, is an unlikely hero, who learns from his father since his childhood to fight for those who don’t have a voice aka the animals. And especially indie dogs.

The film, which has a heavy international crew (French DOP Jean Marc Selva, Belgian Composer Simon Fransquet and Action by the Ong-Bak team of Ketcha Khamphakdee), also marks the big screen debut of Ridhi Dogra as the female lead. The film also stars Milind Soman and Paresh Pahuja in critical parts & is the launch of a real life police officer & professional boxer from Sikkim – Eksha Kerung.

The story revolves around a vigilante in Kolkata who is searching for his missing indie dog ‘Shonku’ and in the process unearths the illegal animal trade industry at Kolkata port. A war ensues between the animal trade Kingpin & the animal lover vigilante. This film brings action form ‘Krav-Maga’ (Israeli Martial Arts Form) in a raw manner to India and Anshuman trained with Tsahi Shemesh (Trainer of Avengers cast fame) in New York before starting shoot for the film.

Anshuman Jha, who is the lead in the film, says, “Arjun Bakshi is a dog’s best friend. And I am grateful to have had the opportunity to train in Krav-Maga & bring his ordinary yet extraordinary character to life. Being ordinary is a super power."
