Varun Sood, Danish-starrer ‘Naam Namak Nishan’ captures unshakeable brotherhood of Indian soldiers

Mumbai: The makers of Varun Sood, Danish Sood, Helly Shah, and Roshni Walia-starrer upcoming series ‘Naam Namak Nishan’ on Friday unveiled the trailer celebrating the spirit of friendship, brotherhood, and the unbreakable spirit of the Indian Armed Forces.

The over-a-minute long trailer offered a glimpse into the inspiring journey of young cadets set against the backdrop of the Officers Training Academy (OTA). The show follows these young cadets who transcend the divides of class, sect and a lot more along with their personal differences to achieve their goal of becoming an Indian soldier.

The trailer takes the viewers the heart of the OTA, where cadets from different corners of India come together with a shared dream, to serve and protect their motherland. It gives a glimpse into the journey of Yuvraj (Varun) and Gurbaaz (Danish), two young cadets from contrasting worlds, who initially clash over their differing views on duty and honour. However, through their journey, they find common ground, discovering that true strength lies in unity and brotherhood.

Speaking about the show, Varun said: “Being a part of ‘Naam Namak Nishan’ has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. This series is a deep dive into the emotional and physical trials faced by cadets as they prepare to serve their nation.”

“It’s not just about the intense training or the conflicts, it’s about the journey of discovering what it truly means to be a soldier. I hope my character inspires viewers and evokes a sense of pride and respect for those who dedicate their lives to protecting our country,” he added.

Amogh Dusad, Head of Content, Amazon miniTV, said: “With ‘Naam Namak Nishan’, we aim to present a unique story that brings forth the brotherhood amongst cadets as they train with each other to serve the motherland. Set in the Officers Training Academy, this show is a testament to not just the bravery and resilience of our armed forces, but also bonds that are forged in the face of rigorous training and personal challenges they go through.”

Samar Khan, CEO, Juggernaut Productions commented: “This series is a labour of love for us and a salute to the spirit of brotherhood and friendship that army training institutes build for life. The show tries to capture the intense transformation every cadet experiences, from personal challenges to building a strong bond with fellow cadets, and we have also tried to capture moments that show that training is not just all work for the cadets but a lot of fun also.”

Roshni added: “The story of ‘Naam Namak Nishan’ is close to my heart, capturing sacrifice, unity, and the deep bonds of those on the front lines. It’s an honor to celebrate the bravery and steadfast commitment of our armed forces, especially as my grandfather, Major Rajinder Singh Saini, was an army officer. Though my character Nia isn’t in the show much, she adds a unique touch that makes it even more beautiful.”

Produced by Juggernaut Studios, ‘Naam Namak Nishan’ will premiere on Amazon miniTV from August 14.
