Nivin Pauly is gearing up for his second big release of 2023, Ramachandra Boss & Co, coming out in theatres on August 25 as a grand Onam treat. Known best among Tamil cinema audiences for the blockbuster Premam (2015), the leading Malayalam actor interacted with the media on Monday evening to talk about his upcoming action heist film, where he was posed with several questions, including one about a rumor a while back stating that he was a part of 'Thalapathy' Vijay's Leo in Tamil.
