The introduction video for Shanthanu Bhagyaraj in the upcoming Malayalam film ‘Balti’ has been released, providing a glimpse into his character, ‘Kumar’.
The video has been well-received, with actor Arjun Das calling the look “killer.”
Shanthanu, who is the son of veteran actors K. Bhagyaraj and Poornima Bhagyaraj, is making his return to Malayalam cinema after 16 years with this film.
His last appearance was in the 2009 film Angel John. Balti is a sports action thriller about kabaddi players and is being shot simultaneously in Malayalam and Tamil.
Directed by Unni Sivalingam, the film also stars Shane Nigam, Preethi Asrani, and Alphonse Puthren, with the latter playing a gangster.
The film’s release, originally slated for August 29, has been postponed to September.
