The first cut of Munna Michael’s trailer is up for release and to make it special, the makers roped in a graffiti artist to add a creative touch to it.

Ravi Kaul, who operates under a pseudonym in the underground graffiti circuit, is primarily an activist and doesn’t usually take up mainstream work. But being a die-hard Michael Jackson fan just like lead actor Tiger Shroff, he couldn’t pass up the offer. He will create his interpretation of the film’s poster on a 10-feet canvas. Says Ravi, “This was my way of bringing together my love for graffiti and MJ through the film,” he says.

Producer Viki Rajani calls it a first-of-a-kind attempt and says Tiger’s solo poster “captures the essence of the dance-drama.” The film’s director, Sabbir Khan, is confident that the artwork will resonate with urban young India. “The idea is to take Tiger’s fans on a journey to discover the story of Munna Michael as we present the poster in form of graffiti,” he adds.
