As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share that the Lokesh Kanagaraj Cinematic Universe (LCU), which I’ve been closely following, is broadening its horizons with the Raghava Lawrence starrer “Benz”. Just recently, the makers of this exciting project have unveiled a significant cast update. In this latest announcement, it’s confirmed that the talented Malayalee star, Nivin Pauly, will be stepping into the role of the main antagonist for the upcoming venture. This addition to the cast promises an even more intriguing narrative in the LCU!
In a new teaser released by the producers, actor Nivin Pauly showcases an ominous and turbulent persona that deviates from his previous roles. Sporting a grim expression, unkempt hair, and gold-capped teeth, he presents himself as the character named Walter.
It’s unexpected that the actor known for Premam will be playing two roles in this film – one is a gentle and seemingly illiterate individual. As the character prepares to confront Benz, a masked vigilante, he describes himself as a man with “a filthy mind yet a heart of beauty…a lethal combo.
The production team announced officially, “Introducing #Walter, our homegrown villain, played by Nivin Pauly.

As an ardent admirer, I can hardly contain my excitement for the forthcoming Tamil action-thriller, where none other than Raghava Lawrence takes on the lead role! This film marks the directorial mastery of Bakkiyaraj Kannan. Being the fourth chapter in the LCU, “Benz” is a collaborative effort between the talented Lokesh Kanagaraj, who not only pens its script but also shoulders co-production under his personal banner. I can hardly wait to witness this cinematic journey unfold!
In addition to Raghava Lawrence and Nivin Pauly, this movie also stars Samyuktha, who gained fame from Vaathi, in the main female role. Notably, Sai Abhyankar, who is known for composing music under AA22xA6 and Suriya45, will be making his cinematic debut with this project.
Previously, Lokesh Kanagaraj had directed three movies set within his film world – Kaithi featuring Karthi, Vikram starring Kamal Haasan, and Leo with Thalapathy Vijay. Notably, Benz will be the first project where Lokesh won’t be the director in the universe he established.
Moving forward, I, a die-hard fan, can’t help but share my excitement as Nivin Pauly graced our screens in the lead role for the movie Malayalee From India. Fresh off wrapping up his film Baby Girl, there’s buzz that he’s now part of an upcoming horror comedy! Can’t wait to see what he brings to this new project!
In addition to these ventures, the actor known for Bangalore Days also has upcoming films such as Dear Students with Nayanthara, along with Dolby Dineshan and Multiverse Manmadhan on his schedule.
