‘Omerta’ First Poster: Rajkummar Rao Is Back as the “Antagonist”

Now this is exciting!

The first poster of Rajkummar Rao’s Omerta has just been released along with a still from the film. Both the actor and director Hansal Mehta have shared the poster, saying their film is about an “antagonist”.

Omerta is based on the real life story of British terrorist of Pakistani descent Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, who has been accused of being involved in the kidnap of foreign nationals in India and journalist Daniel Pearl’s killing. The poster shows a praying Rajkummar at the target of a gun with words like ‘definition’, ‘psychology’, ‘hard’, ‘impact’ and so on around him like a halo.

Check out the poster here:
