Rascals just outed its first look poster which features Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn's faces pasted on bodies of tattooed babies. The look of the babies rings too close for comfort.

Dev D has psychedelic blotter art posters as part of its promotions.
The inspirationBejoy Nambiar's directorial debut film
Shaitan shares more in common with Dev D than the poster. Both are Anurag Kashyap productions and star Kalki Koechlin.
In defence
Bejoy says, "Yes some people have told me that Shaitan's poster is like Dev D. It was the marketing team's input. The mood suited the film. We didn't want a regular poster. The craziness of the film had to translate to the poster."u00a0
