Sakhavu
Sakhavu
was
the
first
release
of
Nivin
Pauly,
in
the
year
2017.
The
film,
which
had
Nivin
Pauly
playing
dual
roles
had
released
during
the
Vishu
season.
The
role
of
Sakhavu
Krishnan
offered
the
actor
with
a
lot
of
scope
for
performance
and
he
made
the
best
use
of
it.
But
still,
the
film
had
opened
to
mixed
reviews
from
the
audiences.
Nevertheless,
the
movie
managed
to
enjoy
a
decent
run
in
the
theatres.
Njandukalude
Nattil
Oridavela
Njandukalude
Nattil
Oridavela
was
one
of
the
highly
anticipated
movies
of
the
actor.
Rightly,
the
film
lived
upto
the
huge
expectations
bestowed
on
it
and
emerged
as
a
clear
winner
of
the
Onam
season.
The
movie,
directed
by
Althaf
Salim
was
produced
by
Nivin
Pauly
himself.
His
portrayal
of
Kurien
also
earned
him
a
lot
of
praises.
Richie
There
was
a
huge
hype
surrounding
Nivin
Pauly's
first
straight
film
in
Tamil.
Richie,
which
featured
Nivin
Pauly
in
the
title
role
was
expected
to
strike
big
at
the
box
office.
The
actor
played
the
role
of
a
local
thug
in
this
movie.
Disappointingly,
the
film
couldn't
fetch
good
reviews
and
it
couldn't
make
an
impact
in
both
Kerala
and
Tamil
Nadu.
The
Big
Projects
More
importantly,
the
year
2017
went
on
to
become
a
special
one
for
him
in
this
aspect.
Some
big
projects
have
been
announced
with
Nivin
Pauly
in
the
lead
role.
He
will
be
seen
playing
the
lead
role
in
Geethu
Mohandas's
next
film
Moothon,
Rajeev
Ravi's
biopic
on
NN
Pillai
and
Jomon
T
John's
directorial
debut.
