Nivin Pauly’s Tamil movie Richie release date confirmed
Nivin Pauly’s second Tamil movie Richie, directed by debutant Gautham Ramachandran has finally got a release date. The movie will hit screens on May 12. Richie is the official remake of superhit Kannada movie, Ulidavaru Kandanthe.
The movie will be centred around two characters played by Nivin Pauly and Natty aka Natarajan Subramanian. It is said to be an investigative thriller set in the costal area. Nivin will be seen as the title character Richie, a fearless local- rowdy like character while Natty has played the role of a boat mechanic.
Veteran actor Prakash Raj will be seen in a prominent character as Nivin’s father like figure. A notable aspect of the movie is that Nivin himself has dubbed for the movie. This is the first time the actor is dubbing for his role in Tamil. Shraddha Srinath, Lakshmi Priyaa Chandramoul, Elango Kumaravel, GK Reddy and Naveen Kunjumon have played supporting characters. The movie is bank rolled by Vinod Shornur and Anand Kumar.
Nivin Pauly enjoys a great following in Tamil Nadu thanks to the huge success of his 2015 romantic comedy 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.
Meanwhile, Nivin’s next release in Malayalam Sakhavu, is also gearing up for release. The movie, directed by National award winner Sidharth Siva is a political drama scheduled to hit screens on April 15, as a Vishu release.
