After teasing with a pre-look poster, the makers of hero Nikhil’s 20th movie unleashed the first look of the movie on the actor’s birthday. Directed by Bharat Krishnamachari and produced by Bhuvan and Sreekar under Pixel Studios with Tagore Madhu presenting it, #Nikhil20 is titled majestically as Swayambhu.

Swayambhu means self-born or ‘that is created by its own accord.’ The first-look poster presents Nikhil as a ferocious warrior on the battlefield. Sporting long hair like a typical combatant, Nikhil is seen riding a horse with a weapon (spear) in one hand and a shield in another hand. His getup and makeover are truly remarkable.

The first look creates curiosity about the project that will start rolling from August, this year.

Swayambhu is going to be the most expensive movie in Nikhil’s career. It will be mounted with top technical standards. Manoj Paramahamsa helms the cinematography, while Ravi Basrur scores the music. M Prabhaharan is the production designer and the dialogues for the movie are provided by Vasudev Muneppagari.
