YRF dropped the first look of their project last month, where Ranbir Kapoor features in a never- seen-before look. The Sanju actor plays a dacoit in the film and as mentioned earlier, the film will be brimming with some high octane action sequences. With films like Brothers and Agneepath on his resume, Shamshera will be Karan Malhotra's third film as a director.
The project was announced by YRF on their official twitter handle with a teaser, which featured Ranbir Kapoor in a tough and rugged look. In the 45-second teaser, we saw Ranbir sporting a scarred look and his hands clad with deadly weapons. The first look of the film was released along with the caption: "Presenting Ranbir Kapoor in a never seen before avatar in YRF's next action adventure Shamshera. Directed by Karan Malhotra."
