Sakhavu,
the
Nivin
Pauly
starring
political
drama
has
completed
its
lifetime
run
at
the
Kerala
box
office.
The
movie,
which
is
written
and
directed
by
the
National
award-winner
Sidhartha
Siva,
has
ended
up
as
an
average
grosser.
According
to
the
latest
reports
from
the
trade
analysts,
Sakhavu
has
made
a
final
gross
collection
of
Rs.
14.20
from
the
Kerala
box
office,
within
its
lifetime
run.
It
is
a
moderate
box
office
figure
for
a
Nivin
Pauly
movie.
The
trade
experts
point
out
that
the
lack
of
publicity
and
less
pre-release
hype
have
severely
affected
the
reach
of
Sakhavu.
Unlike
the
Nivin
Pauly's
past
outings,
the
movie
failed
to
create
an
impact
among
the
non-Malayali
audiences.
However,
Sakhavu
earned
excellent
reviews
from
the
movie
lovers
and
critics
and
has
been
considered
as
one
of
the
finest
Malayalam
films
on
communism.
Nivin
Pauly's
received
wide
appreciations
for
his
performance
as
Sakhavu
Krishnan.
Popular
actress
Aishwarya
Rajesh

the
movie,
which
also
featured
Aparna
Gopinath

a
key
role.
