After the successful sports biography Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Farhan’s second collaboration with filmmaker Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra is Toofaan. The makers released the trailer of the film yesterday.
Farhan plays Aziz Ali, a street fighter from Dongri, Mumbai, who rises through the ranks to become a renowned boxer, but things go wrong. Mrunal Thakur and Paresh Rawal both play key parts in the film.
Sharing the trailer on his social media, he wrote, “The storm has arrived, are you ready? #ToofaanTrailer out now.”

However, the trailer did not go well with some part of the audience and they started bashing the trailer and are calling it a copy of every other sports movie. Have a look at some of the tweets here:
Why Bollywood is cutting their trailer like this? Why do i need to watch the movie after watching the whole movie in 3 mins? 😂 #ToofaanTrailerhttps://t.co/F5sI2iOQzm

It takes a LOT of shamelessness, ignorance and 'conviction' to repackage Rocky in 2021. #ToofaanTrailer

I feel really bad for young actors like Mrunal Thakur, competent for most parts in Hindi cinema, having to go through this 'rite of passage' of being the hero's support system or the incentive behind their transformation in film after film. Only to be an A-lister. #ToofaanTrailer

So #Toofaan is just another version of RockOn, only difference being in RockOn Farhan plays a Lead Singer of a Band and in Toofaan he plays an Boxer. #ToofaanTrailer

A trailer should be just a trailer. It should not give away the whole plot. #ToofaanTrailer
