First trailer for Filmmaker Eva Orner's documentary "Bikram: Yogi, Guru, Predator" has arrived. Eva Orner examines the dramatic rise and fall of hot yoga founder, Bikram Choudhury. Orner covers many of the details addressed in the podcast miniseries '30 for 30'.

Bikram Choudhury was at the forefront of popularizing yoga in North America and around the world. An Indian immigrant with a Beverly Hills base, Choudhury was a born entertainer, known for dressing in nothing more than a black speedo and a Rolex. His teaching style was tough love sprinkled with salty language and punctuated by spontaneous bursts of singing. His followers hailed him for helping them to gain confidence, as Bikram went on to build a franchise empire with hundreds of Bikram studios around the world.



Eva Orner's documentary tracing his rise in the 1970s to his disgrace in accusations of rape and sexual harassment in more recent years. She taps a vast trove of archival footage that demonstrates Choudhury's charm and offers clues to his dark side. She conducts extensive interviews with his one-time acolytes who now feel betrayed, including yoga devotee Sarah Baughn who brought serious charges against him years before the reckoning of the #MeToo movement, and Choudhury's long-time lawyer Micki Jafa-Bodden.

First premiered Netflix will release `Bikram: Yogi, Guru, Predator` for streaming on November 20, 2019.
