Nivin Pauly is currently shooting in Mangalore for Roshan Andrews’ Kayamkulam Kochunni. The movie based on the life Kerala’s most famous highwayman is scripted by the acclaimed writer duo of Bobby and Sanjay. Touted to be Nivin’s biggest till date, this upcoming movie is funded by Gokulam Gopalan’s Sri Gokulam Films.

As we had reported earlier, director Roshan Andrews will be joining hands with Nivin Pauly for another movie after the completion of Kayamkulam Kochunni. Kerala State award winner Unni R is scripting this movie. The director himself revealed this during a recent interview.

Apparently, Nivin listened to both the scripts at same time and immediately agreed to be part of it. The duo’s next film after Kayamkulam Kochunni will be a survival story based on some true events that occurred in Kerala. The plot is set in the backdrop of sea and will explore some lesser known facets of Capri mythology. The movie is being planned on a big canvas and talks are on with a foreign company for its production.

Roshan Andrews, however, did not reveal when he is planning to start shooting for the movie. Nivin currently has several projects down the line, both in Malayalam as well as in Tamil. We will have to wait for an official word from either side about when the project will actually go on floors.

Currently, the shoot of Kayamkulam Kochunni is progressing at a brisk pace in Mangalore and Uudpi. The team will next be moving to Sri Lanka for a month long schedule. The makers are eyeing to release the movie by March next year.
