After proving his acting prowess in the 2008 blockbuster drama 'Slumdog Millionaire,' Dev Patel has recently released the trailer of his latest outing 'Lion'.
The movie is based on a real life story of Saroo Brierley, who got separated from his family at the age of five, got adopted by an Australian couple and then finds his real parents at the age of 25 using Google Earth.
The recently released trailer shows how the protagonist deals with his adopted family, the challenges he face in accepting a new life while trying to connect with faded memories of his real family.
'Lion,' also featuring Nicole Kidman, David Wenham and Rooney Mara, is adopted from Brierley's non-fiction book 'A Long Way Home.'
Patel will be playing Saroon in the movie, while Nicole Kidman and David Wenham will be seen playing his adopted parents from Australia and American and actress Rooney Mara will be featured as his girlfriend.
The high voltage drama film is set to release on November 25.
The film will have its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival and will also be screened at the London Film Festival.
