shed
his
larger-than-life
image
for

the
physically
weak,
peace-loving

broke
all
the
pre-existing
stereotypes
of
police

Mohanlal
(Lucifer)
The
complete
actor
was
simply
brilliant
as
the

stole
the

with
his

and
amazing
underplay.
It

simply
his

Nivin
Pauly
(Moothon)
Nivin
Pauly
delivered
the
finest
performance
of
his
career
so
far
in

The
actor
broke
all
conventional
stereotypes
of
a
male
lead
by
essaying
the
role
of
the
gay
man

who
turns
into
a
ruthless

Thomas
(Luca)

was
unarguably
the

from
necrophobia
in
the
