The second poster showcases a bearded and remorseless Rajkummar Rao being taken away in a police van and people, including journalists surrounding him just to take a good look at the menacing villain.
Rao believes Omertà is his darkest and toughest role so far, which was an overall exhausting experience.
“My first as an anti-hero and exhausting as an actor. To feel the hate towards another human being without any remorse can take quite a toll. It took me a while to shed this character,” says Rajkummar Rao.
The film will narrate the story of global terrorist Omaar Sheikh, who was involved in the 9/11 attack and the Mumbai terror killings in 2008. The terrorist is also responsible for the ruthless killing of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl.
Now fans and critics alike eagerly wait for Rajkummar’s Omertà to arrive as the film promises to be a story of a villain and will reveal dark sides of a human being who is willing to go to any extent achieve his motives.
Omertà is the horrifying true story of one of the most dreaded terrorists of our times. Shot in real locations across London and India, Hansal Mehta’s Omertà exposes the real and present danger of Pakistan sponsored terror.
Directed by Hansal Mehta, with whom Rajkummar has worked in four films, Omertà is all set to release worldwide on April 20.
