Action Hero Biju 2 to go on floors soon 

Earlier, we reported that a sequel to Nivin Pauly's 2016 film, Action Hero Biju, is in the works, with the actor reuniting with director Abrid Shine. It has now been learned the film will go on floors very soon. Announcing the same, Nivin Pauly pens a note on his Instagram handle. 

Sharing a picture of what seems like the script book of the upcoming film, Nivin wrote," It's been eight years since Action Hero Biju hit the screens. Since then, the love and appreciation for the film have been so heartwarming and welcoming. Today, we're beyond excited and thrilled to unveil the long-anticipated part 2 of Action Hero Biju. Rolling soon." 

Action Hero Biju 2 will be produced by Nivin's Pauly Jr Pictures.

Action Hero Biju, released in 2016, followed the everyday activities of Sub-Inspector Biju Paulose and his colleagues at a city police station. Besides emerging as a box office success, the film also garnered critics' praise for its authentic portrayal of an ordinary cop's routine and the performances of the actors, most of whom were newcomers. 

Further information about the upcoming film has yet to be disclosed. However, it has come to light that the makers intend to follow the same approach as the original in the sequel by recruiting new actors. The team has already held several auditions in order to identify suitable performers.

Meanwhile, Nivin Pauly, last seen in Ramachandra Boss & Co, next has Dijo Jose Antony's film coming up. He is also part of Vineeth Sreenivasan's upcoming multistarrer directorial, Varshangalku Shesham. Nivin also has the Tamil film Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai, co-starring Soori and Anjali, in the pipeline, which recently garnered praise at IFFR.
