Kantara's production company Hombale Films, founded by Vijay Kiragandur, also shared the Kaduva actor's tweet and wrote, "Credit goes to the cast and the crew for this divine blockbuster. We just played our bit in showcasing our cultural heritage to the world. With you by our side, we wish to go a notch higher with #Tyson and #Salaar".

Prithviraj is set to star in two films bankrolled by the banner. The first one is Salaar in which Prabhas stars as the leading hero and is directed by Prashanth Neel, who has delivered two blockbusters for Hombale in the form of KGF Chapter 1 and KGF Chapter 2. The other project is Tyson, which is being directed by Sukumaran himself.
