Decoding the poster look

This was done ahead of the release of the teaser for the movie on Friday. The photo is fascinating because of the golden hour and the sun peaking over the horizon. Vicky Kaushal is seen wearing a uniform and holding a stick in his hand, while the poster also states, “Zindagi unki, itihaas humara (His life, our history).” Sharing the picture on his Instagram, Vicky wrote in the caption, “To a life well lived.”
