Nivin Pauly and Aju Varghese’s advice
Riya Shibu also spoke about sharing screen space with Nivin Pauly and Aju Varghese.
She commented on the versatility of Aju Varghese. “Aju has incredible range. He can deliver the same line in multiple ways — funny, serious, or both. Despite his experience, he never makes you feel small. He’s very open about mistakes and learning,” she told the outlet.
Speaking about Nivin Pauly, she said, “Nivin is extremely relaxed. As a co-actor, he gives you space, especially during emotional scenes. He helped me feel comfortable being vulnerable. There’s a quiet magic in how he conveys emotion, especially through his eyes.”
All about ‘Sarvam Maya’
Directed by Akhil Sathyan, 'Sarvam Maya' hit the theatres on December 25. The film revolves around Prabhendu, a priest, and an unconventional ghost. Actors Nivin Pauly, Aju Varghese, Riya Shibu, and Janardhanan play the lead roles in the film. The film has completed 28 days in the theatres, and the worldwide box office collection is inching close to Rs 150 crore.
TOI ranked the film 3.5, and the review mentions Riya Shibu’s performance. “Riya Shibu is phenomenal as the ghost, bringing an unbelievable level of adorability to the character. She carries the film alongside Nivin. At one point, the film even briefly evokes Vismayathumbathu vibes, in the way the supernatural is treated with warmth, whimsy, and emotional intimacy. Aju Varghese plays Prabhendu’s cousin, and the duo once again proves their easy chemistry, bromance quotient, and all,” the review reads.
