An intriguing look at Bastar - The Naxal Story

The makers have shared three posters of the upcoming film Bastar - The Naxal Story, offering a glimpse of the thrilling drama. One of the posters features Adah, leading an army bearing guns, looking furious.  She can be seen donning military pants, a black commando T-shirt, and a commando-like bandana.

The other two spine-chilling posters hint at brutal war scenes and bloodshed. The poster reads, "Bastar: The Naxal Story From the brave storytellers of The Kerala Story." The posters have seemingly piqued the excitement to watch the film.
