‘Swayambhu' gears up to deliver a grand pan-India warrior epic
After the nationwide success of Karthikeya 2, Unique Star Nikhil Siddhartha is all set to make a powerful comeback with his 20th film, Swayambhu. This upcoming Pan-India project is a historical action epic, directed by Bharat Krishnamachari and currently in production. The film showcases Nikhil in a never-seen-before avatar as a fierce and legendary warrior.
Produced by Bhuvan and Sreekar under Pixel Studios and presented by Tagore Madhu, Swayambhu promises a cinematic spectacle with top-tier production values and a strong cultural core. A striking poster featuring Nikhil and Samyuktha was recently unveiled on Nikhil's birthday. Set against a war-torn backdrop, the poster highlights the ancient Sengol, a symbol of righteous power.
Nikhil appears intense, wielding a sword mid-battle, while Samyuktha stands beside him with a bow and arrow, exuding strength and readiness. The presence of the Sengol in the frame not only adds visual impact but also cultural significance. The Sengol, known from ancient texts and recently reinstated in India's new Parliament by PM Modi, symbolizes justice and righteous rule.
Joining the cast is Nabha Natesh, with KK Senthil Kumar on cinematography, Ravi Basrur composing the music, and production design by M Prabhaharan and Raveendra. A teaser is set to release soon, promising a deeper glimpse into this majestic world.
