Akshith Shashikumar - Aditi Prabhudeva starrer medical thriller Chaos gets a release date

Not very long ago, veteran actor Shashi Kumar's son Akshit Shashi Kumar took to social media to announce that his next film would be a gripping crime thriller. Titled Chaos, the film stars Akshith in the lead along with Aditi Prabhudeva with the duo playing medical students and G. Venkatesh Prasad, a doctor-turned-filmmaker, making his directorial debut with the film.

And now, we hear that Chaos is all set to hit the big screen. The team unveiled a special poster earlier today (January 22nd) to announce that the film will release theatrically on February 17th, 2023.

"2022 was fun. 2023, feb 17th is going to be total CHAOS," wrote Akshith Shashikumar in his social media post. The latest poster has the lead pair in a literal face-off pose with a black-and-white tint adding more intrigue to the mood. Akshith's character carries a tattoo on his neck that reads 'DOCTOR'.

As far as the story of Chaos is concerned, previous reports have revealed that the film is a fast-paced thriller that is, in essence, based on true incidents. A vast medical college campus serves as the setting for the mystery to unravel with director Dr. G.V. Prasad, apparently, drawing inspiration from his own experiences as a medical student to develop the world of Chaos. 

Other media reports have revealed that Akshith Shashikumar plays Adi in the film, a young medical student bustling with energy whose curiosity and zest to explore new things drives the narrative. Shashikumar, the very popular '90s hero, plays a key role in the film and this marks his maiden collaboration with his son Akshith. Siddu Moolimani, Shivanand Sindgi, Aradhana Bhat, RK Chandan, and others, too, are part of the cast.

Akshith Shashikumar, on the other hand, would hope that Chaos changes things around for him as an actor. Having made his debut with Seethayana and following it up with Oh My Love, Akshith is yet to find success in the industry.
