About O'Romeo
O'Romeo, written and directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, draws inspiration from Hussain Zaidi's book Mafia Queens of Mumbai. The story revolves around gangster Ustara, portrayed by Shahid Kapoor, who was once part of a powerful gang and was forced into exile after killing a don's brother. He helps Triptii Dimri's character, Afsha Qureshi aka Rani Sharma.
The film boasts an ensemble cast, including Nana Patekar, Avinash Tiwary, Tamannaah Bhatia, Disha Patani, Farida Jalal and Vikrant Massey. Ahead of its theatrical release on February 13, O'Romeo faced legal hurdles when Sanober Shaikh, daughter of Hussain Ustara, filed a petition in a Mumbai court to block the film's release, citing a lack of consent and objecting to her father's depiction as a gangster. However, the court permitted the film's scheduled release.
O'Romeo is produced by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
