Nikhil is doing a youthful role in his next film Kalavar King, which the makers say is cut-out for him. It stars Shwetha Basu Prasad opposite the Happy Days actor, and is releasing soon. The film is directed by L Suresh.
Speaking about their film, producers Chandrasekhara Rao and Dammulapati Srinivasa Rao said, "Kalavar King is the apt title going by the hero's characterisation. The title is already on the lips of the audience even prior to release."
The film is set in the backdrop of city and the hero is someone who has no iota of thought for studies or family. All he knows is tricking people. Kalavar King shows what happens when such a youth falls in love.
Nikhil is playing a naughty role and comedians like Ali, Venumadhav, Dharmavarapu, Raghubabu will be seen. Kashi Vishwanath, seen playing father's role in some films is also playing a character in the film.
