Saif’s look as the merciless ruler is on point with that sharp gaze, long hairs and stubble and will instantly take your back to his Langa Tyagi character in Vishal Bhardwaj’s Omkara. The actor as Udaybhan dressed in armour and holding the hilt of a sword with both hands however draws much resemblance to Game of Thrones character Jon Snow.
As soon as the poster was released fans compared him with Ranveer Singh’s Khilji, the iconic villain in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat and even Jon Snow of the popular HBO fantasy drama. Some of them even slammed the makers of the film for what they alleged was a lack of originality.
Just villain things
