Bollywood’s versatile heartthrob Vicky Kaushal is stepping into a captivating new role in Shoojit Sircar’s upcoming fantasy drama, Ek Jaadugar. The first look poster, released yesterday, is already enchanting fans and cinephiles alike.

A Magical Makeover for Vicky Kaushal

In the poster, Vicky Kaushal is seen donning an enchanting magician’s attire — a luxurious green velvet suit embellished with intricate embroidery, complemented by a flamboyant emerald bowtie and a tall top hat adorned with a green feather. His dramatic curled mustache and playful glint evoke the classic charm of an illusionist, seamlessly blending vintage flair with cinematic elegance.

Vicky holds a glowing wand emanating blue light, as he appears to conjure a swirling green crystal orb that hovers above his palm. Surrounding him are magical elements straight out of a magician’s repertoire — a white dove mid-flight, a rabbit leaping from a hat, and playing cards soaring through the air. The scene is set against a vintage circus or theatre backdrop, complete with velvet curtains, enhancing the fantastical atmosphere of the film. Fans are buzzing about Vicky’s never-before-seen avatar, with social media flooded with comments praising his magical transformation.

Many are speculating whether the film leans more toward fantasy, drama, or a heartwarming narrative shrouded in illusion. With Shoojit Sircar at the helm, expectations are high for a unique storytelling experience that intertwines realism with whimsy.
