On the auspicious occasion of Karthi’s 46th birthday, the makers of his upcoming film “Japan” have unveiled the highly anticipated release date. Fans can rejoice as the action-packed movie is set to hit the screens during the festive season of Diwali in 2023.
‘Japan’, produced by the renowned Dream Warrior Pictures, marks Karthi’s 25th venture in the film industry. The production house took to social media to make the grand announcement, accompanied by a stunning movie poster that showcases Karthi’s new look. The poster, released at midnight on May 24, captures the actor clad in an extravagant gold ensemble, complete with gold teeth, dazzling jewelry, and dual golden guns. The background further accentuates the opulence, featuring golden biscuits, emphasizing the theme of wealth.
With such an abundance of gold depicted in the poster, speculations arise about the movie’s plot revolving around gold smuggling. The inclusion of firearms and weapons hints at an action-packed drama. Karthi not only stars in the film but also assumes the titular role of “Japan.” Interestingly, the actor had previously described the film as an ‘Indian film’, hinting at a patriotic element within the storyline. “Japan” holds significant importance in Karthi’s career as his 25th cinematic venture.
Last year, Karthi took to his social media handles to tease fans with the first look of “Japan.” The intriguing poster depicted the actor lounging on a sofa with the movie’s poster in the background, accompanied by a firearm resting on a side table. The caption, “Japan, Made in India,” further piqued curiosity, promising a unique cinematic experience.
