Kapoor's intense transformation is the highlight of the trailer

Bankrolled by Vineet Jain, the political drama also features Rajesh Tailang and Meiyang Chang in significant roles.
Kapoor's fashion choice sparked online reactions during trailer launch
Meanwhile, Kapoor's outfit choice at the Ulajh trailer launch event on Monday stirred amusing reactions online. After attending Anant Ambani's wedding celebrations, Kapoor appeared in a monochrome ensemble from Balmain for the trailer launch. The strapless gown, featuring a high front slit and resembling a black and white tuxedo, drew comparisons to outfits worn by internet personality Uorfi Javed. Despite some commendation for Kapoor's daring fashion choice, many internet users humorously noted the similarity to Javed's flamboyant style.
