Asif Ali's 'Tiki Taka' to hit theaters during Christmas 2025 in multiple languages, confirms Rohith VS

Director Rohith VS has confirmed that his upcoming Malayalam action thriller Tiki Taka, starring Asif Ali, is slated for a grand theatrical release during Christmas 2025.

Multilingual release across 'all bloody languages'
The director announced on Instagram, where he shared a poster of the film and wrote, "Christmas 2025. All bloody languages for you." As he mentioned in his post, the movie is expected to release in multiple languages.

Third time teaming up
'Tiki Taka' will be the third collaboration between Rohith and Asif Ali, following their earlier films 'Adventures of Omanakuttan' and 'Iblis.' The director describes this project as the most ambitious in Asif's career so far, promising a fresh cinematic experience.

Asif Ali plays a character named John Denver, a fighter known for his resilience and refusal to give up. The actor shared that preparing for this role demanded intense physical training, including fight choreography, which came with challenges. Initially planned for a 2023 release, 'Tiki Taka' faced delays due to the actor's injury and other production challenges. Asif suffered a serious injury involving meniscus and ligament tears, which temporarily halted production. Despite this setback, he returned to the set with determination.

During an interview with OTTPlay director RohithS, he revealed that while 'Tiki Taka' may not be unique in its storyline, its presentation will set it apart.

The film features an ensemble cast including Lukman Avaran, Wamiqa Gabbi, Naslen Gafoor, Sanchana Natarajan, Harisree Ashokan, and Santhosh Prathap.

Sony Seban handles the cinematography, Dawn Vincent composes the music, and Chaman Chakko is the editor of the film.
