Nivin Pauly turns a local rowdy for his next
It’s been a while since Nivin Pauly started working on his second Tamil movie directed by debutant Gautham Ramachandran. The movie, titled as Richie is the official remake of superhit Kannada movie, Ulidavaru Kandanthe.
Currently, the post- production work of the movie is underway in Chennai. Nivin Pauly himself is dubbing for the movie. This is the first time the actor is dubbing in Tamil. The makers are planning to release the movie this summer.
Richie will be centred around two characters- Nivin as the title character Richie and Natty aka Natarajan Subramanian. The movie is set in a costal area in which Nivin will be seen as a stubborn, fearless local- rowdy like character.
Shraddha Srinath, Lakshmi Priyaa Chandramoul, Prakash Raj, Elango Kumaravel, GK Reddy and Naveen Kunjumon will be seen in important roles.
Nivin Pauly enjoys massive fan base in Tamil Nadu after the success of his 2015 blockbuster movie Premam. The movie had a theatrical run for more than 200 days in Tamil Nadu, which is considered a rare feat even for a Tamil film. Richie is eagerly awaited both by Tamil and the Malayali audience. The movie is bank rolled by Vinod Shornur and Anand Kumar.
Meanwhile, Nivin’s next release in Malayalam will be Sakhavu, a political drama, scheduled to hit screens on April 15, as a Vishu release. The movie, directed by National award winner Sidharth Siva, features Nivin as a communist leader.
