Prithviraj, I don't know if there is someone else who knows the stories of almost all the coming films in South India. Actually we Malayalees are not aware of how big he is in Indian film industry. Not bcoz he is a huge star in India. He is treated with huge respect in all the film industries in India including Bollywood especially by the filmmakers.
So true.. immediately after watching this interview, I said to myself “Nalla interview “ and felt happy to see the interviewers doing their homework properly and asking the apt questions.
2 quality persons talking is eye pleasing As a mammookka fan I hope prithwi can provide us our first 200 cr+ movie through Empuraan & Lal sir comeback as storm ❤

Nowadays everyone is judging Prithviraj by his acting in recent 2 or 3 films.. Okay i can also agree to that.. But don't generalize him as a 'Nadaka Nadan' or something.. Just see Koode, Ayalum njnum thammil, Memories, Mumbai police and all to know his ability in natural acting.. And plzz don't forget that he is big contributer to the industry in many ways by giving wide genre quality films and all.. He is big thing in Mollywood and he has great vision about movies and also he is a good actor... Still people can't agreee to that,just bcz they don't like the way he talks.. He talks confidently no matter where he is.. So the so called Malaylis call him Ahankaari and all.. Donoo why... Haters can hate him however they want.. But he will grow for sure

@@gilchristsunny 22 ala he did when he was just 20!!! His performance in Urumi,memories,ayalum njnum thamil,Indian rupee,Mumbai police,vargam etc seems to be forgotten by the ones calling him a naadaka nadan! Hell,his performance recently in ayyapanum koshiyum and jana ganamana too were praise worthy but these guys are too overwhelmed by the fact that Prithvi got way too much attention as a director and even as a distributor that they find it hard to acknowledge him as an actor anymore! Ppl like dq and even Fahad who’s said to be the best actor of his generation still hasn’t even attempted the wide range of roles Prithvi has done till now.
Prithviraj is the actual Best Actor among the Younger troop of Actors in Malayalam film industry..... He is brilliant in Method acting as well as realistic natural acting, Example Koode the film and Ayappanum Koshy in recent times. He is super flexible and versatile too... He can do comedy brilliantly Amar Akbar Anthony, Pavada, Swapnakoodu are good Examples. He is currently the best in Romantic roles too... Ennu Ninte Moideen, Anarkali, etc are excellent Examples. There is no one to beat his performance in action sequences from Malayalam films. A naadan role, an urban role, historic role, young, old, classic, Mass, anything is safe in Prithviraj's hands. Prithviraj is the actual real best artist. Better than the overrated Fahad Fazil who is still doing just the Maheshinte Prathikaaram's Mahesh in every film... if Mahesh becomes Psycho... you'd get Kubalngi Nights character, that character gets a little urban, you'd get Trance, a little old, malik, bald Pushpa, with some tamil the character in Vikram.... such a limited Actor... who is always performing the same way. Prithviraj is way better than Jayasurya and Indrajith too... just watch the sentimental sequences in Amar Akbar Anthony, you'll understand. Stop degrading Prithviraj... you'd be wasting your time. Because he is a super Hard worker and smart working artist. His upcoming films proves that he is currently ruling Malayalam film Industry and will be leading it for the next several decades however long he lives. Considering his paternal side, Men in his family haven't lived long, but let's hope he crosses his 50s and 60s too and remains healthy to entertain us with his brilliant performances..... I was scared if we'd loose him to Aadujeevitham.... also the Death of Puneeth Rajkumar from Kannada too created the fear of gym freaks leaving us too early. So, understand the fact that Prithviraj is one of the best artists in India and don't waste your time in degrading this hardworking brilliant artist. 👍
One of the finest intelligent individual with multitasking ability to express like an encyclopedia about the whole world is Prithviraj and so proud of you dear! We all are in need of good cinema and explore the talents abundant in our film industry to experiment to go beyond ! Thank you so much dear Maneesh Narayan to bring the versatile Prithvi in front of us!
