Nivin Pauly and Abrid Shine have never shied away from experimenting. If Abrid’s debut directorial venture, 1983, saw Nivin play a father with aplomb, Action Hero Biju saw the actor don khaki and also turn producer. The two come together after six years for Mahaveeryar. The film is based on a short story written by M Mukundan and is produced by Nivin.
Nivin says it was the script that enthused him and the “comfort I feel while working with Shine ettan”. According to Nivin, the film is “a court room drama that is also a fantasy film with elements of time travel. It is a genre bender. ”
