After four long years, Ranbir Kapoor made a comeback with a movie that also stars Sanjay Dutt (whose biopic he had done and won applause). Who would have expected that Shamshera won't be able to weave the magic at the box office as expected.
The film has already been labelled a flop. Those who have watched have either called it a bad film or said it was incredible. Some even argued that had it been a regional movie, it would have amassed a greater footfall to theatres.
Before the release of the movie, Vaani Kapoor had however assured her fans and movie buffs that her role is not just a prop in the film.?"I have tremendous respect for Karan. I loved his movie Agneepath. I understand his sensibilities and aesthetics and I admire those. When he offered me the film, I saw the kind of arc he had for my character. She is not just there to be used as a prop in the film. It¡¯s very little disclosed in the trailer but once the film comes out, the audience will see a very different look and dimension to this character," she told CNN News 18.
A fan wrote, "Sanju baba has done a lot of overacting , Vaani Kapoor is used as a prop in the film only comes in song pathetic . Only silver lining is Ranbir that too has not gone up to his potential in this film."
"Can anybody please explain why was there a need to unnecessarily sexualise Vaani Kapoor¡¯s role in Shamshera?", asked another user.
Furthermore, Vaani Kapoor said that she wanted to work with Sanjay Dutt and Ranbir Kapoor, and hence, she picked up this role. She told the publication, "It¡¯s a dream cast and a great opportunity".?
