Alia Bhatt is all set to knock the socks off us as Sehmat in Meghna Gulzar's Raazi. 

The storyline of Raazi is based on the best-selling book by Harinder Sikka titled Calling Sehmat. Sehmat, who is a Kashmiri, is an Indian spy while being married to a Pakistani Army official, which is played by Vicky Kaushal.

A while back, we got a small glimpse of Raazi and also got to know that the trailer was coming out on April 10, 2018. Today, the first poster of the movie is out and it will indeed give you goosebumps. We get to see shades of Sehmat as a daughter we all wish we had. In the poster, Sehmat is seen seeking blessings from her father (played by Rajit Kapur).

Check the poster out:


Karan Johar, who is producing the movie tweeted the poster and said, "Strong, Emotional, Fiercely Independent. The kind of daughter everyone wants but I already have! @aliaa08. #ShadesOfRaazi #Raazi @apoorvamehta18 @DharmaMovies and @JungleePictures @meghnagulzar @vickykaushal09." 

Are you excited to see Alia in Raazi? Let us know in the comments below.

In an interview with a daily, when Alia was asked if she has read the novel, she said, "I had not read the book when Meghna came to me about a year-and-a-half ago. There was just a basic one-line story idea. I told her that this is something that I would love to do. Usually, we greenlight a script, but in my head, I had agreed to do Raazi even without the script. It’s a true story, and when I heard the turn of events, I had goosebumps. I couldn’t believe it. Then, they came back to me and I read the first 20 pages of the story and I knew that if I want to do that one film a year that challenges me, this is that film. Actors want to do that one big Hindi film every year, but I want to do that one film that will completely challenge me and turn everything upside down. It happened with Highway, Udta Punjab, Dear Zindagi and now with Raazi. I am so scared and nervous to go on this journey, because of the kind of intensity of this character."

Raazi is slated to release on May 11, 2018.
