The highly anticipated Project K made an electrifying debut at the prestigious San Diego Comic-Con festival, leaving audiences in awe with its enthralling presentation. The star-studded team, led by superstars Prabhas and Kamal Haasan , will be soon unveiling the first glimpse, full title and release date at the festival.

Taking the anticipation to another level, the filmmakers paraded a troupe of men dressed in specially made full-black suits, reminding us of stormtroopers from the iconic Star Wars series. The army is simply named 'The Radiers' — they stand out by their distinctive black armour and skull-shaped helmets. And all the soldiers could be seen wielding some sort of a projectile weapon. The suit, the formation and the weapon bear a strong resemblance to the stormtroopers.

For the uninitiated, stormtroopers are the military force of the Galactic Empire. Trained from a young age to be obedient and loyal, stormtroopers are deployed to maintain order and enforce the will of the Emperor throughout the galaxy.

"The Raiders have started taking over @Comic_Con . Meet them and raid along into our universe. #ProjectK," tweeted Vyjayanthi Movies, which is bankrolling Project K.

Written and directed by Nag Ashwin, Project K is poised to redefine the sci-fi genre in Indian cinema. The film has already become a focal point of excitement and anticipation among enthusiasts and moviegoers alike. Considering the scope and size and universality of the movie's themes, the producers are pulling all stops to reach out to moviegoers in all parts of the world. With this presentation at the San Diego Comic-Con, which celebrates the magic of cinema and pop culture, the producers kick-started their global promotions for the movie.

Earlier, the filmmakers unveiled the first look of Prabhas from the movie. He could be seen wearing a special suit and striking a hero's pose against the backdrop of a devastated world.

Besides Prabhas, the film also stars Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Disha Patani.
