Nikhil embarks on an ambitious journey with Swayambhu

Talented actor Nikhil Siddhartha is undeterred by the disappointing result of his previous outing SPY. He is now coming up with another epic pan-India project titled Swayambhu which was announced a few weeks ago. The opening ceremony of this big-budget period drama was held today in Hyderabad and the regular shooting also commenced simultaneously. Debutant Bharat Krishnamachari is wielding the megaphone for this film.

On this occasion, the makers have unveiled a terrific first-look poster in which Nikhil appears in a swashbuckling avatar as a dauntless warrior. He is seen riding a horse with a bow and arrow aiming at a dragon. The impressive design and Nikhil’s phenomenal transformation hint that this is going to be a magnum opus production with top-notch technical values and lavish visuals.

Swayambhu is billed as an ode to a legendary warrior of Indian history. The makers have kept the details of the story under wraps. Happening beauty Samyuktha Menon is paired up with Nikhil in this film.

The film boasts renowned technicians like cinematographer Manoj Paramahsa and music composer Ravi Bursar. Bhuvan and Sreekar are bankrolling the film on a grand scale.
