The visual effects work on Nikhil’s Swayambhu appears to be progressing impressively, with the actor himself expressing excitement after watching a few shots from the film. In his latest post on X, Nikhil showered praise on Phantom India and expressed his eagerness to showcase the film to audiences in theatres this year.

“Just saw some Vfx shots of #Swayambhu @phantomfx_india have done a Fantastic Job for the movie .. cant wait for the entire film on this BIG SCREEN this Year.. You are all in for an Amazing Experience . looking fwd to delivering this Magnus Opus on screens… @bejoy_Arputharaj bhai…. @krishbharat20 @TagoreMadhu, ” Nikhil’s post reads.

The poster accompanying the update reinforces the epic scale of the project. Nikhil appears as a warrior riding a white horse across a sandy beach. The horse is captured mid-stride, with its flowing mane and tail illuminated by the golden light of the setting sun.

Directed by Bharat Krishnamachari, the film is produced by Bhuvan and Sreekar under the Pixel Studios banner, with Tagore Madhu presenting it. Planned as a multilingual release, Swayambhu is among the major projects in Nikhil’s current lineup.

With the actor openly expressing satisfaction with the VFX output, anticipation is building around the film. Further promotional updates are expected as the team moves closer to bringing the ambitious project to audiences this year.
