UV Creations Drops Majestic Poster on Ashika Ranganath’s Birthday, Celebrates Her Role in Vishwambhara

Celebrating actress Ashika Ranganath’s 29th birthday on August 5, 2025, production house UV Creations unveiled a stunning new poster from the highly anticipated Telugu fantasy epic Vishwambhara. The social media post read:

"Team #Vishwambhara wishes the gorgeous and talented @AshikaRanganath a very Happy Birthday! MEGA MASS BEYOND UNIVERSE in Cinemas Soon."

The poster spotlights Ashika’s elegant and mythic look in the film, further amplifying the buzz surrounding her role opposite Megastar Chiranjeevi. Rising to prominence after her debut in Crazy Boy (2016), Ashika has steadily built a reputation as a versatile talent in South Indian cinema, and Vishwambhara marks a major leap in scale and visibility for her.

Directed by Mallidi Vassishta, Vishwambhara is a grand socio-fantasy film set across 14 mythological lokas (worlds), with its narrative rooted deeply in ancient Indian cosmology. Amidst comparisons to Hollywood juggernauts like Avatar, Vassishta has pushed back against such claims, asserting that the film draws from Indian heritage — citing temple art featuring flying horses like Rekkala Gurram as authentic visual references.

Despite initial plans for a Sankranti 2025 release, the film has faced production delays. A major reason was the Rs. 75 crore VFX overhaul reportedly demanded by Chiranjeevi following backlash to the teaser, signaling the team’s commitment to delivering a world-class visual experience. The film’s final release date is yet to be announced, but expectations are sky-high given its $12 million+ budget and ambitious vision.

With MM Keeravaani composing the music and a star-studded cast including Trisha Krishnan and Kunal Kapoor, Vishwambhara is shaping up to be a landmark entry in Telugu cinema’s evolving fantasy genre — and Ashika Ranganath’s role is already being hailed as one to watch.
