On the eve of Megastar Chiranjeevi’s birthday, the maker of his highly-anticipated socio-fantasy magnum opus, Vishwambhara, unveiled the film’s pre-look poster at midnight. The poster features Chiru holding a weapon and entering a giant and brightly-lit snow mountain.

The intriguing pre-look poster comes with the caption, “When myths collide, Legends arise,” giving a vague hint about the mythical experience the film has in store for the audience and raising expectations for the first look poster, which will be released this morning at 10:08 AM. Vishwambhara is being touted as the most expensive project in Chiru’s career.

Vishwambhara also stars Trisha, Bollywood actor Kunal Kapoor, and young actresses Ashika Ranganath, Isha Chawla, Surbhi, and others in key roles. Vassishta Mallidi is directing the film, while the UV Creations banner is bankrolling it on a huge scale. Oscar-winning composer MM Keeravani is scoring the soundtrack. The film is slated for release on January 10 as a Sankranthi festive treat.
