Karthi-starrer Tamil period horror-thriller Kaashmora is making news across the film industry and for all the right reasons. The first look of the film’s poster, which was unveiled on Thursday, has caught the attention of audiences for the actor’s portrayal of a tyrant.
The poster, which was unveiled on Twitter, has Karthi sporting a bald and a menacing look.
“In the period portion, Karthi will be seen playing a tyrant and it’s for this role he shaved his head to sport a menacing look. He will be seen in this character for about 30 minutes in the film,” a source from the film’s unit said.

“It’s unlike any role he’s played so far in his career. He essays three characters in the film — Kaashmora and Rajnayak. The makers have decided to keep the third character a secret. The film is based on black magic and there are also portions of comedy, romance and action,” he added.
One of the highlights of Kaashmora will be its war sequence.
