The official trailer of Ranbir Kapoor바카라™s much-awaited period action film 바카라˜Shamshera바카라™ dropped on Friday (June 24), presenting the Bollywood star in a never-seen-before avatar of a dacoit who fights for independence from the British.
Directed by Karan Malhotra, the Yash Raj Films바카라™ movie is set in the 1800s and also stars Sanjay Dutt, Vaani Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla and Ashutosh Rana.
The almost three-minute-long trailer introduces Ranbir Kapoor as the titular hero, a Robin Hood-like figure from a tribe who steals from the wealthy.
Dutt, who had famously played the bald-headed baddie Kancha Cheena in Malhotra바카라™s 2012 movie 바카라˜Agneepath바카라™, is once again playing the antagonist. He essays the part of Daroga Shudh Singh, a ruthless cop tasked by the British to rein in Shamshera바카라™s tribe. 바카라˜War바카라™ star Vaani Kapoor features in the trailer as Sona, a dancer and love interest of Ranbir Kapoor바카라™s character.
Towards the end of the trailer, the makers confirm that Ranbir Kapoor is pulling off a double role in the film as he is also confirmed to be playing the part of Shamsher바카라™s father.
바카라˜Shamshera바카라™, which was announced in May 2018, is set to hit the theatres in IMAX on July 22. It will be released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
Ranbir Kapoor바카라™s last big-screen release was 2018's 바카라˜Sanju바카라™. Following 바카라˜Shamshera바카라™ the actor will also be seen in Ayan Mukerji's 바카라˜Brahmastra: Part One Shiva바카라™.
