On the occasion of Sankranthi, the makers have unveiled the much-awaited title of Chiranjeevi's next Mega156 as Vishwambhara. Along with the title, the makers have released a concept video offering an insight into the sci-fi thriller.

A look at the fantasy film Vishwambhara

Helmed by Vassishta, the video promises a fantasy film with Hindu mythology elements as we can see an idol of Lord Hanuman. The glimpse begins with transporting us into a heavenly world, where someone locks a magical box, which accidentally falls. It passes through a black hole and crashes into an asteroid. After many such disruptions and obstacles, the magical object finally reaches the earth, which is symbolically shown with a large Hanuman statue. A crater appears as it crashes into the earth, yet nothing happens to the magic box. Finally, the title of the movie is revealed as Vishwambhara.

Seeing the clip, we can say the film is beyond the universe and our imagination. The journey of the magical box gives us some lucidity on the kind of cinematic experience we are going to witness.
