The trailer of O’Romeo, starring Shahid Kapoor, Triptii Dimri and Nana Patekar, has been released and is creating strong buzz on social media.
The response has been mixed, with some viewers praising the trailer’s artistic approach, while others feel it relies more on style than substance. As a result, the trailer has triggered intense discussion among fans and general audiences alike.
The trailer showcases Shahid Kapoor in a loud, aggressive and violent role, very different from his earlier romantic characters.
Many social media users quickly pointed out similarities between this character and his role in Kabir Singh.
Some jokingly described it as “Kabir Singh 2.0,” while others compared the film’s dark and intense tone to Animal.
While a section of fans appreciated Shahid’s bold performance, others felt the angry character template has already been overused.
Triptii Dimri, who is sharing screen space with Shahid Kapoor for the first time, also caught attention.
Some viewers praised her confident screen presence, while others felt her character was not clearly established in the trailer.
Nana Patekar’s brief appearance left a strong impact, with many appreciating his powerful dialogue delivery and expressive performance.
Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, O’Romeo naturally carries expectations due to his earlier successful collaborations with Shahid Kapoor.
However, the trailer’s heavy violence and disturbing dialogues have led to divided opinions online.
The film has also seen some controversy, with reports suggesting that the family of a historical figure linked to the story may have sent a legal notice.
Despite this, promotions are continuing as planned. O’Romeo also features Tamannaah Bhatia, Vikrant Massey, Disha Patani and Avinash Tiwary, and is scheduled to release in theatres on February 13, 2026.
