HT review of O Romeo

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, "Performance-wise too, Shahid is easily the film’s biggest draw, and the primary reason it remains watchable on the big screen. A close second is Triptii Dimri, who slips comfortably into Vishal Bhardwaj’s universe. Together, their chemistry is convincing and gives the film some of its most engaging moments. Avinash Tiwary attempts something refreshingly new for him, playing a vicious gangster, but the writing never allows him to rise above a familiar caricature. Tamannaah Bhatia, cast as Avinash’s traumatised wife, barely registers in the larger scheme of things and feels underutilised. Disha's track leads to nowhere ultimately. Nana Patekar is dependable, as always."

Apart from Shahid and Triptii, O Romeo also stars Vikrant Massey, Tamannaah Bhatia, Avinash Tiwary, Disha Patani, Farida Jalal and Nana Patekar, among many others. The film is set around a deeply emotional and turbulent narrative that explores passion, pain, and the irreversible consequences of love denied, according to the makers. O Romeo is inspired by a chapter of author Hussain Zaidi's book Mafia Queens of Mumbai.
