Chiyaan Vikram had last acted in the action thriller Kadaram Kondan directed by Rajesh M Selva and produced by Kamal Haasan, and is next acting in the action thriller Cobra which is being jointly produced by Viacom 18 and 7 Screen Studios Lalit Kumar.

Cobra is directed by Demonte Colony and Imaikka Nodigal director Ajay Gnanamuthu, and this movie will reportedly have Vikram in 20 different looks, breaking the records of 9 roles by Sivaji Ganesan in Navarathri and 10 looks of Kamal Haasan in Dasavatharam.

The latest speculation making the rounds is that the first look of Cobra might be released on February 14, and an official clarification on this speculation is expected soon. Cobra also stars Srinidhi Shetty, cricketer Irfan Pathan, KS Ravikumar, Sarjano Khalid and has music by AR Rahman.
