Rangoon

Rangoon is one of the most awaited Vishal Bhardwaj's film after his super hit film Haider! The film that stars Kangana Ranaut, Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor is a love triangle that is set against the historical backdrop of world war II (1939-1945). In this love saga, Kangana plays a role of an actress from the era of 40s named as Julia. Julia is inspired from Mary Ann Evans aka Fearless Nadia who was said to be Bollywood's first original stunt-woman and is still known for her powerful role in film 'Hunterwali'. While Saif Ali Khan plays a filmmaker, Shahid Kapoor plays a role of a soldier who leads his troop.

In the story, Rusi Billimoria (Saif) is seen as a possesive beau of Miss Julia ( Kangana Ranaut) who is not very happy with Julia getting attracted to the lead of the troop Nawab Malik (Shahid). The movie was initially supposed to go on floors soon after 'Omkara' in 2006 with the title name 'Julia'. However that could not work out and the film got delayed until 2017. The screenplay is written by Matthew Robbins who also earlier penned down the screenplay for Bhardwaj's movie '7 Khoon Maaf'.

The trailer of this much awaited film Rangoon was out on January 6, 2017 which gave the audience a marvellous glimpse of what the film has to offer. Like most of the Vishal Bhardwaj films this trailer also got immense positive response from the audience. Along with the trailer, the songs are also the plus point of the flick! There are 12 songs in the film that are composed by Vishal Bhardwaj himself and written by the veteran ace lyricist Gulzar. Vishal and Gulzar have given number of wonderful songs in the past and this album too is a gem of them. The songs Bloody Hell, Mere Miyaan Gaye England, Yeh Ishq hai and Tippa are some of the most catchy songs in the album.

Rangoon is directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Viacom 18 Motion Pictures. It is scheduled to release on February 24, 2017.
