Asif Ali's Tiki Taka: Action-Packed Christmas Release
The film's release marks a significant milestone for Asif Ali, who has overcome numerous challenges to bring this project to life, and is expected to provide a thrilling experience for audiences, with its raw action and mass appeal, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre.
Asif Ali, the lead actor of the upcoming Malayalam film "Tikitaka", has shared his enthusiasm for the project, describing it as his "KGF" and a "never-before experience" for film buffs, after undergoing an 18-month break and extensive rehabilitation following a serious injury during fight training.
The film, directed by Rohith V S, promises a big-screen spectacle packed with raw action and mass appeal, with Indonesian action choreographer Uday Nans behind the stunt sequences. Asif Ali has described the film as "an unapologetic commercial cinema" experience, aiming to deliver a landmark action film in Malayalam cinema. The production was temporarily halted after Asif suffered serious injuries during an intense fight training session last year, leaving him bedridden for weeks and in a wheelchair for several more.
The movie marks Rohith's third collaboration with Asif Ali, following Adventures of Omanakuttan and Ibilis. Tiki Taka is billed as the most ambitious project in Asif's career, a full-scale commercial entertainer driven by action and mass appeal. The cast includes Lukman Avaran, Wamiqa Gabbi, Naslen Gafoor, Sanchana Natarajan, Harisree Ashokan, and Santhosh Prathap.
Asif Ali-starrer Tiki Taka is set to release in cinemas during Christmas 2025, and the actor has expressed his determination to bring the character to life, despite the challenges he faced during production, including a physical makeover and training for fight scenes. With its high-budget production and promising cast, Tiki Taka is expected to be a landmark film in Malayalam cinema.
