Bikini babes, stylish cars and super-hot men, finally the first theatrical trailer of Abbas-Mustan's Players is out.

As expected, the film looks extremely stylish and promising starring Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Bipasha Basu, Bobby Deol and Sikandar Kher as Players going for the gold.


In the competitive world of Bollywood, it is necessary to package and promote your film well. The Players team gets full marks for it. If sources are to be believed, Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and even Aishwarya Rai were considered for Players.

Players is the Hindi remake of original “The Italian Job” starring Mark Wahlberg, Charlize Theron, Edward Norton with Seth Green and Jason Statham who played pivotal roles in the film. Abhishek Bachchan is essaying the role of Mark Wahlberg in Players.

From the gold look of the posters we can be sure the gang is into a big robbery.

The film will hit screens on January 6, 2012.

For all who go gaga over Bipasha Basu's body, rumour has it that she has donned a bikini in her upcoming multi-starrer movie Players. The Bengali beauty has sported a red bikini in the movie for a particular beach sequence.

Director duo Abbas-Mustan was keen to keep Bipasha's look a secret till the release of the first trailer. In the past Bipasha was seen in a bikini for Dhoom 2, on which she apparently went for a special orange diet to obtain the desired toned body.

Players stars Abhishek Bachchan, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Sonam Kapoor and Omi Vaidya, and is set for release on January 6, 2012.

Bipasha Basu, who debuted in the industry with Abbas-Mastan's 2001 directorial venture " Ajnabee" and then went on to do more films with them, says it is very difficult to turn down their films.

"It is very difficult to turn down an Abbas-Mastan offer because firstly, they gave me my first break and secondly, because they are fantastic filmmakers. They know how to use me as an artiste. Everytime when they present me, it has been great," Bipasha told IANS.

"I think I'm their baby. I was launched by them. I don't think I would be acting if I wouldn't have done 'Ajnabee'. The kind of comfort level they provided at that point of time to a newcomer was great. I was just doing it for fun because I was bored of modeling. If I would have had a bad experience, I would have done something else," she added.

The actress has also worked with the duo in "Race" and will now be seen in their forthcoming venture " Players".
