Prithviraj and Dulquer Salmaan is said to be the young super stars of Kerala or the ones who is going to get that title after Mohanlal and Mammootty. Suresh Gopi, Jayaram and Dileep had that for small periods but they had never able to hold on to that position for long and still the complete actor Mohanlal and the mega star Mammootty is the super duper stars of Mollywood and they are still the best in the business as well.
But our younger generation is showing some sparks to get there and we don’t know still that who is going to be that man clearly. But indications suggest that whether it may be for shorter period or for a longer period it is going to be Nivin Pauly who will be the next young star considering his recent continuous successes. Earlier it was said to be Prithviraj, Fahadh Fazil or Dulquer Salmaan as they had given some consistent hits and on the way to become a star. But Fahad off late faced continuous failures and Prithviraj’s releasing schedule seems to be terrible which made them both to pull out of the race may be for a shorter period. Dulquar had given some hits but not as big as given by Nivin.
Now Nivin Pauly is cruising forward with successes and it was in last year that he started the success trail of him with the success of Abrid Shine directorial flick named 1983. Then he gone forward with a rapid pace on the way till now he had in his credit 2 blockbusters and another one moving to blockbuster hit as well. Anjali Menon directorial multi-starrer Bangalore Days and debutant Prajith directorial flick Oru Vadakkan Selfie are the above mentioned two blockbuster hits of Nivin in last 18 months or so.
And the one which is moving to a blockbuster is Premam which released last Friday conceived by Alphonse Puthren who had the credit of giving a much needed hit to Nivin with his directorial debut Neram in 2013 which in fact the the one which really gave Nivin the much needed boost to cruise. Now there are many people in our industry and among the audience who believes that Nivin will reach to the level of a super star even before Prithviraj or Dulquer does so.
