First look of Nayanthara from Nizhal out

We recently reported that Kunchacko Boban and Nayanthara are teaming up for editor Appu N Bhattathiri's directorial debut, Nizhal. The makers released the first look of Nayanthara's character from the film on the occasion of her birthday today.

Nizhal will also see Kunchacko Boban returning to the thriller genre after Anjaam Pathiraa. A while back, the first-look of the actor wearing a mask sparked speculations that he could be playing a vigilante. 

Appu is co-editing the film with Arun Lal, while Deepak D Menon of Tharangam and Maradona fame is handling the cinematography. The sound department is being handled by Talaash and Badlapur-fame Abhishek S Bhattathiri and National award-winner Sinoy Joseph will work on the re-recording. Stephy Zaviour is the costume designer.

Scripted by S Sanjeev, Nizhal is produced by Anto Joseph, Fellini TP, Badusha, Abhijith M Pillai, and Ginesh Jose. The team is hoping to release it next year.
