Nivin Pauly’s work front
Nivin Pauly last appeared in a lead role in Sarvam Maya. The feel-good horror comedy featured him as Prabhendu, a struggling musician from a Hindu priest family who returns to his ancestral home and begins working as an assistant priest to his cousin, Roopesh, to earn money.
However, things take a turn when Prabhendu is haunted by a sweet-natured spirit who has no recollection of her own origins. How the two uncover her past forms the crux of the film. Apart from Nivin Pauly, the movie also stars Riya Shibu, Aju Varghese, Preity Mukundhan, and several others in key roles.
