Hrithik Roshan gets ready to do battle in the new poster for Mohenjo Daro 

Ashutosh Gowariker's Mohenjo Daro is slowly picking up pace. Beaten in the trailer race by Akshay Kumar's Rustom, the makers of the film are turning to their leads to create a buzz around the film. The latest poster for Mohenjo Daro features star lead, Hrithik Roshan in an action pose, all ready to do battle.

Hrithik Roshan plays Sarman, an indigo farmer trying to save the city of Mohenjo Daro from the clutches of a dictator. One of the highlights of the trailer was the glimpse of Roshan entering a large arena to battle vicious-looking warriors from another city. The scene, like the poster, is a reminder of the gladiatoral influence that will be present in the film. 

If it is anything like the scenes from Gowariker's previous epic Jodhaa Akbar, Mohenjo Daro would be one for the record books.
