Director Vishal Bhardwaj Hails Sajid Nadiadwala for the Unwavering Support for the Highly Anticipated O’Romeo

At the trailer launch of the much-anticipated O’Romeo, director Vishal Bhardwaj set aside the spotlight on the film to honour the man he believes made it possible producer Sajid Nadiadwala.

Vishal Bhardwaj said,"There was one man who truly belonged here, because without him, it would have been impossible for this film to be started, forget about completing it. And he is the last of his kind, of this breed of producers in this industry. He further added," The other thing is that they stopped making people like him anymore. He’s truly one of our legends."

Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, O'Romeo stars Shahid Kapoor as a gunman and marks yet another collaboration between the actor and Vishal Bhardwaj. The film is understood to draw inspiration from the life and times of Hussain Ustara, a Mumbai-based gangster who was known for his rivalry with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. The film is set to release on 13th February. O'Romeo carries high expectations, especially for Shahid Kapoor, who has not delivered a major theatrical blockbuster since Kabir Singh in 2019. While he has experimented with varied roles across theatres and streaming platforms, his box office performance has remained inconsistent. O'Romeo will face competition at the box office from Bejoy Nambiar's Tu Yaa Main.
