Prithviraj as Kumbha in Globetrotter
The most recent poster depicts the actor as a disabled character in an advanced wheelchair with arms resembling those of Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man. In addition, he has a menacing appearance while wearing a black suit, suggesting that he may be an ingenious mind with vicious plans ready to cause havoc.
"After canning the first shot with Prithvi, I walked up to him and said you are one of the finest actors I’ve ever known. Bringing life to this sinister, ruthless, powerful antagonist KUMBHA was creatively very satisfying. Thank you Prithvi for slipping into his chair… literally….", said SS Rajamouli, the film's director, who shared the poster. More character posters are anticipated to be revealed in the coming days.
