Mumbai: Fasten your seatbelt and get ready to go on a thrilling ride with Vidya Balan in the dense jungle. The trailer of Vidya Balan's Sherni dropped on Wednesday, and it looks breathtakingly amazing.

Vidya will be seen in role of a forest officer in the movie. Produced by T-Series & Abundantia Entertainment, this Amazon Original Movie is directed by an award-winning filmmaker Amit Masurkar who's known for his critically-acclaimed film 'Newton.' 

Prime members in India and across 240+ countries and territories can stream this Vidya Balan starrer drama exclusively on Amazon Prime Video on June 18.

The film will see Vidya Balan in the lead as an upright forest officer– Vidya, who does her duties and caters responsibilities of jungle.

The exciting trailer showcases Vidya's incredible journey, set in a world full of quirky yet relatable characters.

The film also has an eclectic mix of actors like Sharad Saxena, Mukul Chaddha, Vijay Raaz, Ila Arun, Brijendra Kala and Neeraj Kabi in significant roles.

Speaking about working on this unconventional entertainer, the prolific director Amit Masurkar shared, "Sherni is an intricately-layered story, exploring the complex issues of conflict between humankind and animals. Vidya Balan plays a mid-level forest officer who works with her team and local allies to preserve a balance in the environment despite obstacles and pressures. Working with her, the amazing ensemble cast, and the uber-talented crew has been an incredible experience for me. I hope that releasing Sherni on Amazon Prime Video will help this story reach a wide and diverse audience both in India and across the world."

Sharing her excitement on the trailer launch, the versatile actress Vidya Balan said, "Ever since I first heard the story of Sherni, I found the world fascinating and so far removed from my own. Also, the character I play, Vidya, is a woman of few words but many dimensions. The film deals with a sensitive topic that touches upon respect, mutual understanding, and co-existence, not just between man-animal but also between humans.  It gives me immense joy to bring this unique character and story to the global audience through Amazon Prime Video and hope to engage them in unexpected ways.
