Actor Nara Rohith is currently busy with multiple projects, and interestingly, he will be seen playing a police officer in more than one film. In Trivikram Srinivas and Venkatesh's upcoming film AK-47, which is slated for release on October 2, Rohith plays a cop.
On the occasion of his birthday on Saturday, the makers of his upcoming film Kapaali unveiled its title and first-look poster. Directed by Raam Ganni, the film is a psychological horror thriller set against a police backdrop.
The film is produced by Kalyana Chakravarthy Manthina and Bhanu Kiran Pratapa under the Sapta Aswa Media Works banner, while Vijay Krishna Lingamaneni presents it. Hansika Motwani returns to Telugu cinema after a gap of a few years and plays the female lead opposite Nara Rohith in the film.
The title Kapaali, which means "the one who wears a skull," perfectly complements the striking first-look poster.
Nara Rohith sports an intense and determined expression as he looks upward, suggesting his character is confronting an unseen force. Twisted tree branches emerge like a crown from his head, symbolising a mystical connection. Behind him, mysterious ancient symbols form a circular pattern, reinforcing the film's occult and mythological themes.
In the foreground, a terrifying female figure with glowing red eyes hints at a powerful supernatural presence. Police officers, including one carrying a rifle, are also seen in the poster, while a police transport vehicle stands atop a glowing ritual circle, indicating that law enforcement gets drawn into a chilling paranormal mystery. Overall, the first-look poster creates an intriguing impression and raises curiosity about the film.
The makers are expected to announce the rest of the cast and technical crew soon.
Apart from Kapaali and AK-47, Nara Rohith has also signed another film, which was launched a few weeks ago. The project marks the directorial debut of Chinimilli Manikumar and is produced by Bharath Chowdhary. Nayan Sarika plays the female lead opposite Rohith in the yet-to-be-titled entertainer.
