Liger marks Vijay’s Bollywood debut. Sharing the new poster, he wrote on Twitter, “A film that took my everything. As a performance, mentally, physically my most challenging role. I give you everything! Coming soon. #Liger.” Directed by Puri Jagannadh, the film is co-produced by Karan Johar under his banner. Sharing the same poster, Karan said, “Rose rose aise gifts nahi milte (You don’t get these surprises everyday), referring to Vijay’s look.

Vijay’s poster from Liger got reactions from his fans instantly. Responding to his post, a user wrote on Twitter, “It’s very rare (to) see actors accepting such bold roles & posing bold.” Vijay’s look has also reminded many of Aamir Khan’s controversial poster from his film PK.

Liger will release in five languages, including Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. The movie also stars Ananya Panday in the lead alongside Mike Tyson. It had been shot in the US earlier. It features Vijay as a kickboxer who went from being ‘chaiwaala’ in Mumbai to becoming a professional boxer, competing in the US. He underwent a dramatic physical transformation for the film and even went to Thailand to train in martial arts.
