Nikhil's Kalavar King has seen yet another delay. It was supposed to hit the screens in December, but got delayed because of the T-tussle. When everybody expected that it would release in January, the news is that it is coming only in February.

In the film, Nikhil plays a wisecrack, whose forte is making clever, if cunning, talk. Speaking at the time of launching the film, the producers Chandrasekhara Rao and Dammulapati Srinivasa Rao had said, "Kalavar King is the apt title going by the hero's characterisation. The title is already on the lips of the audience even prior to release."

The film is set in the backdrop of city and the hero is someone who has no iota of thought for studies or family. All he knows is tricking people. Kalavar King shows what happens when such a youth falls in love.

Nikhil is playing a naughty role and comedians like Ali, Venumadhav, Dharmavarapu, Raghubabu will be seen. Kashi Vishwanath, seen playing father's role in some films is also playing a character in the film.
