ABOUT Prithviraj Sukumaran

Prithviraj Sukumaran: A Versatile Reign in Malayalam Cinema and Beyond Prithviraj Sukumaran, a prominent figure in Indian cinema, has carved a niche for himself through diverse roles and consistent success across Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu films. Born on October 16, 1982, his journey spans over two decades, marked by both critical acclaim and commercial success. His career took flight with the 2002 hit Nandanam, followed by a significant resurgence with Classmates (2006), establishing him as a bankable star. His early accolades include the Kerala State Film Award for Best Actor (for Vaasthavam, 2006) and further recognition for his performance in the Tamil film Mozhi (2007). He ventured into production with August Cinema in 2010, co-producing and starring in Indian Rupee, a National Award-winning film. Subsequent successes include Ennu Ninte Moideen (2015) and Ezra (2017). His directorial debut, Lucifer (2019), became a box-office sensation, solidifying his position as a multi-faceted talent. The recent years have seen him deliver critically acclaimed performances in films like Ayyappanum Koshiyum (2020), Jana Gana Mana (2022), Kaduva (2022), and the pan-Indian Telugu action film Salaar (2023). His latest ventures include The Goat Life and Guruvayoor Ambalanadayil (both slated for 2024). His awards include a National Film Award, four Kerala State Film Awards, a Tamil Nadu State Film Award, seven SIIMA Awards, and a South Filmfare Award. Prithviraj Sukumaran continues to be a leading force in the Indian film industry, consistently pushing boundaries and delivering compelling performances.
