Star Ajay Devgn unveiled the first trailer for Raid, just a few hours after sharing the first poster for the social drama on Twitter. The film, set in 1981, tells the story of an income tax officer in Lucknow, who takes on the ‘powerful corrupt’ in an effort to help the poor.
Ajay plays an honest government officer, whose idealism has forced him to be transferred 49 times in seven years. Such is his idealism that he says that he will not quit fighting corruption even if he is transferred for a fiftieth time. His character reminds us of Rajkummar Rao’s election officer in Newton, but with more masala dialogues.
His adversary is a government official who tells him that no one can enter his house even to kill a fly, so the chances of him being raided are impossible. Ajay’s character then puts together a team, a lot like Akshay Kumar’s Baby, and gets cracking on the case.
