Watch: New trailer for Dublin shot Bollywood film Teraa Surroor

Last August Bollywood came to Ireland to shoot Teraa Surroor at various well-known locations in and around Dublin. The trailer for this Irish-Indian co-production is now available, and has already clocked up more than 5.5 million views in India.

Starring two of India’s most celebrated stars Himesh Reshammiya and Shekar Kapur (Director of Elizabeth, Elizabeth the Golden Age), Farah Karimaee, Kabir Bedi (Octopussy), Monica Dogra (American Singer) and directed by Shawn Arranha, it is the next chapter in the franchise started by the hit film Aap Kaa Surroor in 2007.

Himesh plays the role of Raghu, who is on a mission to save his girlfriend from imprisonment in Dublin, after she was wrongly framed by an unknown person named Anirudh Brahmin.
