In a revelation that’s captivating movie buffs, Nikhil has connected his upcoming blockbuster ‘Swambhu’ to one of India’s most sacred artifacts: the Sengol. Directed by Bharat Krishnamachari, the film boasts a stellar cast including Samyuktha and Naba Natesh, promising a lavish dive into historical grandeur.
The Sengol, familiar to many from its placement in the new Parliament by PM Modi, hides a rich backstory. Nikhil revealed, ‘Our story springs from the Sengol’s history – first given by Lord Rama to ensure righteous kingship and justice. It echoed through epochs, especially in the Chola realm’s golden days. We’ve spun a mesmerizing fictional yarn around it and our central character.’
Evoking the Chola dynasty’s era of unparalleled splendor, ‘Swambhu’ is a feast for the senses. Backed by Pixel Studios’ producers Bhuvan and Shrikar, anticipation soars with the teaser launch slated for a dual-city extravaganza on February 11. Global premiere awaits on April 10, 2026, positioning this as essential viewing for history and cinema enthusiasts alike.
