Bollywood Star Ranbir Kapoor turned 39 on Tuesday. The actor, whose absence from the silver screen is inadvertently prolonged due to the Covid-19 pandemic, will soon be seen in Shamshera, a period drama by Yash Raj Films. On his birthday, YRF took to social media to announce the release date of the film. Shamshera faced delays during production due to the Covid-19 pandemic. With the film, the actor is all set to take on the silver screen in a completely different avatar.
Taking to Instagram, YRF announced that the film will release on March 18, 2021. Apart from this, he also shared the first look of Ranbir’s character. In the picture, Ranbir can be seen donning long hair, which has three stripes on his head. Although his full face has not been revealed, his eyes can be seen off-camera. The official post reads, “Legends will leave their mark. #RanbirKapoor #Shamshera #Shamshera18March2022 #YRF50 @_vaanikapoor_ @duttsanjay @karanmalhotra21 @shamsheramovie.”
Shamshera is reportedly the Indian adaptation of Howard Pyle’s Mary Adventures of Robin Hood. The film is based on pre-independence India in the 1800s. The film also stars Vaani Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt in lead roles.
