Shahid Kapoor and Vishal Bhardwaj's film, initially titled Arjun Ustara, might have a new title. The movie, at one point, was even titled Evil because there is a focus on Evil, too. Nonetheless, the makers eventually might have decided on a completely different title. The latest buzz is that the film is now named Romeo. Here's everything we know about the project...
While earlier reports stated that Shahid Kapoor and Vishal Bhardwaj's upcoming collaboration film is titled Arjun Ustara, that might no longer be the case according to a report on Pinkvilla. The film would now be called Romeo, as opposed to once reported Evil, too.

Although the storyline of the Shahid Kapoor-Vishal Bhardwaj collaboration film is currently under the wraps, the basic plot revolves around a gangster who leads a colourful life. The film is an action-thriller. It marks Shahid and Vishal's fourth collaboration after Kaminey, Haider and Rangoon. While Kaminey and Haider went on to gain massive success at the Box Office, Rangoon tanked. Thus, the viewers are eager to learn what could the fate of Romeo, starring Triptii Dimri as the female lead, be. Notably, the movie also features Disha Patani in a special dance number.

Although Shahid Kapoor's movie with Vishal Bhardwaj was always releasing with Prabhas' The Raja Saab, the latest report is that the movie will also clash with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar. The film is slated to release on December 5, 2025. It would be quite an interesting clash, for Shahid and Ranveer actually share a history. Many speculate a cold war between the two actors till date, one which dates back to the time when they worked together in Padmaavat. The cold war passes down to their fandom and if news about them clashing at the Box Office is rather true, it might just be iconic in all sense of the word.
