Hyderabad: Tamil actor Vikram Prabhu is all set to make his first venture in Telugu cinema with the upcoming film Ghaati, which also marks the return of Anushka Shetty to the big screen. Today (January 15), on the occasion of Vikram's birthday, the makers of the film have dropped his first look, introducing him as Desi Raju, a key character in the action-crime movie.
Taking to the microblogging site X (previously known as Twitter), director Krish Jagarlamudi shared his first look and wrote, "Happy Birthday to the exceptional @iamVikramPrabhu garu. It's been a privilege to witness ur transformation into the fierce n fearless #DesiRaju and can't wait for the world to experience ur #GHAATI energy, fire n magic on April 18th, 2025. Stay Phenominal."
The poster reveal comes after a striking promo video released last November. That promo video showcased Anushka in a compelling and intense role in a spine-chilling sequence where she takes justice into her own hands, wielding the sickle. The tagline, "A story of a woman who is a victim, a criminal, and a legend," hints at the depth and complexity of the plot.
