Why Vineeth Sreenivasan-Nivin Pauly are a winning duo

Vineeth has announced that his new movie, Jacobinte Swargarajyam, starring Nivin Pauly and Renji Panicker, among others, will be shot almost fully in Dubai.

The successful combo of Vineeth Sreenivasan and Nivin Pauly are out to delight audiences once again and this time, their setting is not Thalasseri but right here in Dubai. Vineeth has announced that his new movie, Jacobinte Swargarajyam, starring Nivin Pauly and Renji Panicker, among others, will be shot almost fully in Dubai. In its preparatory stages, the film was apparently from the perspective of Renji Panicker's role and even had a different title. Vineeth says the film has been the toughest to write so far in his career and that he draws on real-life experiences of friends and acquaintances.
Slated for release in summer 2016, the film has already raised huge expectations more so because the coming together of Vineeth and Nivin have meant a roaring box office collection. Vineeth earlier directed Nivin in Thattathin Marayathu and this year scripted Nivin's superhit film Oru Vadakkan Selfie.
For Nivin, it would be going back to the 'acting school' once again; after all, he is the find of Vineeth and made his debut in Vineeth's first film Malarvadi Arts Club. Nivin is now wrapping up Action Hero Biju, a film by Abrid Shine that has now reportedly been pushed from a Christmas release to January 2016. Meanwhile, the final list of the season's releases in December also includes Dhyan Sreenivasan's Adi Kapyaare Kootamani. Having stolen a sizeable thunder from the superstars this Onam with Kunjiramayanam, where Dhyan and Vineeth teamed up, it looks set that the Sreenivasan juniors and the youth brigade led by Nivin are set to consolidate 2016 in their own terms.
