Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 9 : The much-awaited first look from the iconic filmmaker-actor duo Vishal Bhardwaj and Shahid Kapoor is finally out, offering fans a glimpse into the world of 'O'Romeo'.
On Friday, the makers dropped the first look of Shahid Kapoor as Romeo from the Vishal Bhardwaj directorial.
The poster portrays the actor in a brutally intense character, his expressions breaking into a wild, maniacal grin, smeared with blood and cuts. Shahid's rugged look, tattooed arms, and an open-neck shirt with chains and a heavy belt give him a raw presence.
Also, the red background and aggressive posture together bring to the fore a mysterious, rebellious aura. "Romeo O Romeo where art thou O'ROMEO!" Shahid wrote along with the poster on Instagram.

Presented by the visionary Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the film also stars Triptii Dimri and Nana Patekar. Produced under Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, O'Romeo is set to hit theatres around Valentine's Week on February 13, 2026.
