Vicky Kaushal Dazzles as a Magician in Shoojit Sircar’s Ek Jaadugar; Riding High on Chhaava’s Success

Bollywood heartthrob Vicky Kaushal has taken a magical turn in his career with Ek Jaadugar, Shoojit Sircar’s upcoming fantasy drama. The film marks a stark departure from his recent warrior king portrayal in Chhaava, showcasing the actor’s remarkable range.

First Look: A Whimsical Wizard Emerges

The first-look poster of Ek Jaadugar has taken the internet by storm. Vicky is seen in a luxurious green velvet suit with intricate embroidery, complemented by a bold emerald bowtie, a classic top hat adorned with a green feather, and a curled moustache. The look draws comparisons to Johnny Depp’s Mad Hatter, mixing quirky flair with vintage elegance.

He holds a glowing wand, emitting a blue light that swirls into a green crystal ball, capturing the film’s mystical theme. The backdrop—a vintage circus or theatre draped in velvet curtains—adds to the aura of enchantment and cinematic grandeur.

Career High: Chhaava and Beyond

Vicky is currently basking in the glory of Chhaava, a historical drama directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Maddock Films. The film, co-starring Rashmika Mandanna, Akshaye Khanna, and Viineet Kumar Singh, has emerged as a commercial and critical success, marking one of the standout moments in Kaushal’s career.

Upcoming: Love & War with Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Looking ahead, Vicky has another massive project lined up—Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War, set for a 2026 release. The film also stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, promising a high-octane romantic drama from the maestro filmmaker.

With Ek Jaadugar adding a dash of fantasy to his already versatile filmography, and major collaborations on the horizon, Vicky Kaushal continues to reinvent himself as one of Bollywood’s most dynamic leading men.
