Shamshera is a 2022 Indian Hindi-language period action drama film produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films and directed by Karan Malhotra. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor in a dual role, alongside Sanjay Dutt, Vaani Kapoor, Ronit Roy, and Saurabh Shukla.[5][6][7][8][9][10] It follows the captivity of an oppressed warrior tribe during the British Raj. This was Ranbir Kapoor's comeback film after an unexpected four-year hiatus, mainly due to the making of this film as well as Brahmastra which was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Shamshera was released on 22 July 2022 to mixed to negative reviews from critics and eventually emerged as a box-office failure.[11]
