'Raman Raghav 2.0' to release in May

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has locked May 27 to release his upcoming thriller film "Raman Raghav 2.0" starring Vicky Kaushal and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

Kashyap took to Twitter to announce the release date of the film.

"'Raman Raghav 2.0' to be released on May 27th," he tweeted.

Vicky, who was last seen sharing on screen in the film "Zubaan" with actress Sarah Jane Dias, also re-tweeted Kashyap's announcement and wrote alongside the tweet: "Next Up".

The "Masaan" star will be essaying the role of a police officer in the upcoming film, while Nawazuddin is in the lead role.

This is the second time the 27-year-old actor and the "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" star are working together, though first as co-stars.

Earlier, Vicky assisted Kashyap on "Gangs of Wasseypur-1 and 2", which featured the "Badlapur" actor playing the protagonist.

Vicky will also be seen sharing screen space with actors Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar in the upcoming film "Manmarziyan".
