Tovino Thomas finishes dubbing for Maari 2

It is already known that Malayali actor Tovino Thomas is playing the villain in Dhanush’s ‘Maari 2’. The movie directed by Balaji Mohan is the sequel of Dhanush’s 2015 film ‘Maari’. As the movie gears up for release, Tovino has finished dubbing his portions in the movie. The actor informed the same by sharing a photo taken with Balaji Mohan from the dubbing suite in his social media handle. He has written,

Done with #maari2 dubbing! Thank you @directormbalaji ,@dhanushkraja @omdop @Actor_Krishna and the whole team for the patience @wunderbarfilms @vinod_offl

Director Balaji Mohan retweeted,

One of the most sincere & hard working actors I’ve worked with #Maari2

When it was first announced, Tovino’s casting came as a big surprise. Although he has played negative roles in films like ‘ABCD’ and ‘Style’, this will be his first full-fledged villain role after establishing himself as a star. Director Balaji Mohan had clear plans while roping in Tovino for the movie.

Eventhough the first part, ‘Maari’ was not a big hit, it had a wide reach. So the director collected feedback on what went wrong in the movie. While scripting, he took all that into consideration, and first designed the antagonist. The script was later developed from the villain’s role. As it shaped up, the role demanded an intense actor and that’s how they signed Tovino. According to the makers, it is a very powerful role and cinephiles are eagerly waiting to see the face-off between Dhanush and Tovino.

‘Maari 2’ also stars Sai Pallavi, Varalakshmi Sarath Kumar and Krishna in major roles. First look poster of the movie will be unveiled on November 2 and the release date is excepted to be announced shortly.
