‘Swayambhu’ means self-born or ‘the one that is created of its own accord’. The first-look poster presents Nikhil as a ferocious warrior on the battlefield. Sporting long hair and a grimace, he is seen riding a horse with a spear in one hand and a shield in the other.

It is said to be the most expensive movie in Nikhil’s career, with cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa, music from Ravi Basrur and dialogues by Vasudev Muneppagari.

Nikhil’s upcoming new release will be ‘Spy’, centred around the disappearance of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.
