Nivin Pauly is all set to start working on

Kayamkulam Kochunni

, directed by Roshan Andrews, which will start rolling from September 1.

After successfully reigning in the box office through Sakhavu, young heartthrob Nivin Pauly seems to be the busy bee in Mollywood as he has many films in his kitty. We hear that the film touted to be an action thriller, involving several scenes of Kalaripayattu, will go on floors soon. Apart from locales in Kerala, the movie will also be shot in Sri Lanka.
The movie, which is about the legendary

thief Kochunni

, is known as Robin Hood of Kerala. The movie is scripted by National Award winning scriptwriters Bobby and Sanjay. We had reported earlier that actress Amala Paul will be playing the lead role opposite Nivin Pauly in this Malayalam period film.
