The character teaser revealed that Prabhas will be essaying the role of Vikramaditya, a palmist. The teaser was unveiled by production houses UV Creations and T-Series. Ahead of the release, Prabhas shared a glimpse from the teaser on Instagram and wrote: “Vikramaditya will see you soon… #RadheShyam.”
