Vishal Bhardwaj, the filmmaker behind Shahid Kapoor's intense first look that debuted on Friday, January 9, 2026, is ready to give fans a better look at his next movie. The makers plan to unveil the first video asset for the film today, January 10. Positioned nearly a month ahead of its theatrical release, this reveal is expected to offer the first moving images of the highly anticipated action thriller, O'Romeo.
What is O'Romeo's video set about?
As per a report in Mid Day, the upcoming video will not be like other promotional videos. Unlike Friday's poster, which featured a tattooed and bloodied Kapoor, today's promo is more concerned with setting the mood for the story. According to people close to the production, the film will focus more on the setting's visual and emotional impact than on straightforward story details.
A source informed the tabloid that Bhardwaj is known for creating a world with its own unique vibe and charm. The evocative power of O'Romeo is comparable. Like all of the filmmaker's films, O'Romeo has complex feelings, goals, and conflicts beneath its action thriller surface. This footage is no ordinary teaser; rather, it offers a sneak peek into the months of world-building that the filmmaker and his crew put into the project.
Who are the prominent actors joining Shahid Kapoor in O'Romeo cast?
With a running time of about two minutes, the video will introduce the larger cast that inhabits Bhardwaj's universe. This has prominent characters performed by Avinash Tiwary, Randeep Hooda, and Triptii Dimri. The film's casting choices have people talking, as the actors are in roles very different from their past work.
O'Romeo features one of the most impressive ensemble casts in a Bollywood film recently, according to another source who weighed in on the actors' contributions. Not only Kapoor, but all the actors will debut in roles and styles they've never explored before. The first asset, which has a fantastic background score and hints at a few of them, will be out soon.
How many films have Vishal Bhardwaj and Shahid Kapoor done before?

Critics and fans alike are hoping for great things from this collaboration, particularly because Bhardwaj is known for getting Kapoor's best performances. Coming to theatres on February 13, 2026, right in the middle of Valentine's Day weekend, is the current release date for the film.
