First n New Look: Shah Rukh Khan as a warrior in 'Atharva'


Behold the warrior Shah Rukh Khan in this new poster of the coming graphic novel ‘Atharva’.

‘Atharva - The Origin’ is a new age graphic novel project by Virzu Studios featuring Shahrukh Khan as the titular character.

Written by Ramesh Thamilmani, the novel is set in very ancient times, when strange beasts roamed the earth. Shah Rukh Khan plays a prospective king who makes a difficult and lone journey to unravel his destiny.

‘Atharva’ chronicles that journey, taking its hero and you on an awe inspiring journey encountering magnificent lands and strange beasts.

Thamilmani thinks that the character of the warrior is not very different from the personality of Shah Rukh.

"We felt the character Atharva and the personality of Shah Rukh Khan matched perfectly. Keeping that in mind, when we pitched the idea to him, he instantly agreed and expressed lot of enthusiasm to be associated with the project," Thamilmani said in an interview earlier.

The novel will be made available in print, smart TV, Kindle and e-book formats by mid-2015.
