‘Prathichaya’ story<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

‘Prathichaya’ is a Malayalam political thriller directed by Unnikrishnan B. The narrative revolves around a major political crisis at the highest level of state leadership.The film features Nivin Pauly in the lead role. Sharaf U Dheen and Balachandra Menon play important supporting parts.ETimes review for the film read, “While in the hands of another actor, John might have been a more massy character, Nivin underplays his part, and the film is better for it. Otherwise the issues that Prathicharya was looking at would have been lost in loud dialogues and twirling moustaches. His acting instincts once again shows that he knows how to shine in a heroic role, as he does in an emotional one or a cameo comedic part. Sharafudeen, too, plays it cool and complements Nivin\u2019s vibe.”<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
