Gunmaaster G9 trailer
Gunmaaster G9 follows the story of a former ‘master’ (Emraan Hashmi), who quits the crime world to start afresh with his family. However, his past returns to haunt him, alters his present and puts his future with his ladylove (Genelia Deshmukh) at risk. He has to protect his family from the menacing antagonist (Aparshakti Khurana). The trailer promises that the film is high on dialoguebaazi and whistle-worthy moments, particularly in single screens.
Emraan Hashmi on seeing Gunmaaster G9 as a 'challenge'
In an official statement, Emraan said that Gunmaaster G9 was a challenge he had not explored in this way before. The actor underwent an intensive preparation period, working on martial arts, gun shooting and the physical demands of the action sequences.
He said, “I'm known for playing characters who have often found themselves in dangerous situations, but Gunmaaster G9 takes that to another level. This time, I am not just reacting to the danger; I am right in the middle of the action. The hand-to-hand combat, gun sequences and stunts demanded a different kind of preparation. I wanted to make sure that the action felt convincing and that audiences saw a side of me they hadn't seen before. That's what made this film exciting for me.”
Genelia Deshmukh on working with Emraan Hashmi
Genelia Deshmukh, who stars with Emraan for the first time, added that the film’s commercial appeal lies in its ability to bring together very different emotions. She shared, “What I enjoyed about Gunmaaster G9 is that it doesn't restrict itself to one mood. There's action, but there's also romance, humour, music and emotion. A film like this gives you the opportunity to entertain audiences in several ways. Working with Emraan for the first time was also something I was looking forward to. The trailer is only a glimpse of the world we've created.”
Aparshakti Khurana on playing the antagonist
Aparshakti Khurana, the antagonist of Gunmaaster G9, added, “When a film promises this kind of action and scale, you want every character to add something to the madness. Gunmaaster G9 has a very entertaining mix of characters and situations. It has the kind of larger-than-life moments that audiences enjoy watching together in a theatre, and I think that's where its appeal lies.”
Aditya Datt says he will bring the old Emraan Hashmi back on screen with Gunmaaster G9
Aditya Datt said in his statement that he is bringing Emraan back to the space he hasn’t explored recently. “I am giving the audience an avatar that hasn’t been seen in a long time, combining high-octane action with powerful music, two elements that have always been central to my filmmaking. I was missing Emraan in my films. It’s exciting to revisit our journey together, but more importantly, to create something that feels fresh, explosive and truly entertaining for today’s audience.”
Gunmaaster G9 is produced by Deepak Mukut, Hunar Mukut and Sangeeta Ahir, and presented by Soham Rockstar Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. The film is releasing on November 27, 2026.
