The actor will portray the character of Professor Ambili, also known as Uncle Luna.R.

Recently, on the occasion of Jagathy's birthday, the makers unveiled a character poster featuring the actor seated in a wheelchair against a striking post-apocalyptic backdrop, consistent with the film's zombie narrative. The wheelchair's accessories bear a striking resemblance to those of iconic scientist Stephen Hawking, hinting at a tech-savvy character.
