Actor Jayasurya has received a special birthday gift from the team behind his upcoming film Kathanar. Taking to the social media, the makers made a big reveal of his character’s striking look in the fantasy-horror thriller.
The poster, released by Sree Gokulam Movies on social media, showed Jayasurya as a fierce and mystical sorcerer, leaving fans both intrigued and impressed.
The production house shared the powerful poster with a message that read: “Not the tale you know, but the one rewritten by time. An epic reborn, for a new era. Happy Birthday Dear Jayasurya — the face of our wild sorcerer, Kathanar.”
Joining the celebration was actress Anushka Shetty, who also plays a lead role in the film. She took a moment to wish Jayasurya a happy birthday, adding a warm personal touch to the day.
Kathanar, which was first announced in 2023, has been generating quite a buzz—and not just for its cast. What’s truly making waves is the promise of groundbreaking technology being used in the film. The makers have said that Kathanar will bring visual production techniques never before seen in Indian cinema.
In an earlier statement, the team revealed, “Kathanar movie brings technology never before used in Indian cinema.” They spoke about using advanced workflows like Tech-Viz, Stunt-Viz, and Post-Viz, along with impressive pre-production tools such as full-body 3D scans and motion capture technology.
They added, “Hollywood films like The Jungle Book and The Lion King pioneered these technologies. Now, we are honoured to bring such international standards to Malayalam cinema through Kathanar. It will be a global film that brings together top talent from across the country.”
Earlier, fans also got a glimpse of Prabhu Deva’s look from the film, adding to the growing excitement.
