Vishal Bharadwaj’s romantic thriller O’Romeo is finally arriving on OTT platforms. The Shahid Kapoor starrer hit theatres in February. The romantic action thriller is inspired by the non-fiction book Mafia Queens of Mumbai by S. Hussain Zaidi.

O’Romeo is available on Amazon Prime from April 10. Prime Video made the announcement on social media on Friday morning. The quiet announcement came as a surprise, as most big Hindi films’ streaming releases are announced in advance, and not after they are already on the platform.

Apart from Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri, the film also stars Avinash Tiwary, Nana Patekar, Tamannaah Bhatia, Disha Patani, and Farida Jalal in pivotal roles, with Vikrant Massey appearing in a special role. Hussain Dalal and Rahul Deshpande also feature in key roles.
