The clip started with the protagonist saying, “There are two types of people in the society. One who earns his bread with his sweat. And the other who takes away his bread with his blood and sweat. I'm the other one. I don't care what people think about me. Whether I'm a villain or a hero. I'm the hero in my story.”

The film was announced on Rajkummar's 40th birthday on August 31.

Made under the direction of Pulkit, the action entertainer will also feature Prosenjit Chatterjee, Medha Shankr, Huma Qureshi, Anshumaan Pushkar,

and Swanand Kirkire in crucial roles, along with others.

Rajkummar Rao never fails to surprise us with his versatility! From playing a common man in 'Newton' to this gangster avatar - what a range! The song 'Naamumkin' is so melodious, Shreya Ghoshal's voice is pure magic ✨ Can't wait for July 11!

Manushi looks stunning but I hope she gets proper screen time and isn't just there for the song sequences. Rajkummar's dialogue in the teaser gave me chills - "I'm the hero in my story" 🔥 This could be his career-best performance if executed well.

The music combo of Sachin-Jigar and Amitabh Bhattacharya is always gold! But I'm a bit skeptical about Manushi's acting - beauty pageant winners often struggle with intense roles. Hope she proves me wrong. Rajkummar though - total paisa vasool!

After seeing the teaser, this reminds me of those classic 90s gangster films but with modern treatment. Prosenjit Chatterjee's presence adds that extra gravitas. Hope the story lives up to the hype - Bollywood needs more solid action dramas!

The song is beautiful but I hope the film doesn't rely too much on romance. The gangster angle seems more interesting. Also, why do they always pair much younger actresses with senior actors? Rajkummar is 40 while Manushi is just 26. Food for thought 🤔

Rajkummar's transformation is incredible! From his physique to that intense look - he's clearly put in the work. The supporting cast looks strong too with Huma Qureshi and Swanand Kirkire. July can't come soon enough! #MaalikAnticipation
