Azaad was theatrically released on 17 January 2025 and directed by Abhishek Kapoor, known for films like Kedarnath and Kai Po Che. The narrative centers on Govind (Aaman Devgan), a humble stable boy who becomes close to a magnificent black horse named Azaad under the mentorship of rebel leader Vikram Singh (Ajay Devgn). Set against the backdrop of colonial India, Govind’s journey evolves from learning to ride and care for the horse to confronting entrenched power and injustice. As Govind becomes part of a larger struggle for freedom, themes of loyalty, courage, and self-discovery emerge. The film also features Rasha Thadani as Janaki and Diana Penty as Kesar, and combines period action with emotional drama.
