Nivin Pauly one of the leading stars in Malayalam film industry had confirmed in a recent interview that he has signed the contract to star as lead hero in a Tamil film soon. However he did not reveal any details about the project.

Now we have heard from a reliable source that director R.Parthiepan whose last film Kathai Thirakathai Vasanam Iyakkam` that released in 2014 was critically acclaimed and commercially successful has met the Premam` actor in Cochin and narrated a script to him. The actor seems to have liked the script narrated by the veteran director and is likely to give his nod to star in it.

Whether Nivin Pauly was referring to the Parthiepan film in his interview given a few days back or it was a different one? We will have to wait for official confirmation.
