MID-DAY (January 5, 2017)

After collaborating with Hansal Mehtra on three successful projects in the past, actor Rajkummar Rao believes his fourth outing with the director is his “most explosive” work till date. “Omerta is one of our most explosive films till date. It’s something which will be very new for everyone. We have not seen or witnessed before in every way,” said the actor, whose previous works helmed by Mehta include Aligarh, Citylights and Shahid.

Rajkummar further added that while the film is inspired by real-life events, it isn’t related to Mario Puzo’s novel of the same name. “The treatment is thriller, but it is based on a true story. But it has nothing to do with Mario’s novel. It’s a different story which people will love.”
