Tovino Thomas’ work as an assistant director
While the audiences are used to seeing Tovino’s name in the credits as an actor, there is one film in which people will find his name as an assistant director. The film is Theevram, which stars none other than Dulquer Salmaan, who has been a big name in the Malayalam film industry for long. Theevram is a thriller film directed by Roopesh Peethambaran and along with Dulquer, it also stars other actors such as Shikha Nair, Sreenivasan, Riya Saira and others. But hardly anyone would be aware that among the credits of the film was an aspiring actor, who would soon step into the frame.
Tovino Thomas made his debut soon after Theevram in the movie Prabhuvinte Makkal. His debut was followed by a number of films that showcased his acting talent and he was soon recognised as an upcoming name in Malayalam films. One of the earliest roles that he garnered attention was for the film ABCD, in which he played a negative role. He soon started getting different kinds of roles, both as a protagonist and as an antagonist.
Tovino Thomas' birthday falls on January 21, which sees him turning 32 years old. He entered the world of films at a very young age and eventually made a good space for himself as an actor. The last few years have seen him appear in several films, including Forensic, Edakkad Battalion 06, Lucifer, Maari 2, Abhiyude Katha Anuvinteyum Abhiyum Anuvum and many more. He was last seen in the film Kilometers and Kilometers and has several films lined by for a release this year.
