Actor Sudev Nair who is best known for portraying viillain and character roles in South Indian movies is excited to play a prominent character in Geethu Mohandas’ much-anticipated film ‘Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups’. Speaking to Onmanorama during the promotion of his upcoming webseries ‘Kammattam’ directed by Shan Thulasidharan, Sudev also revealed that the film ‘Toxic’ is ‘pure Geethu Mohandas’ at its core. “Toxic is an out-and-out Geethu Mohandas film, combined with Yash’s understanding of mass and Rajeev Ravi’s canvas. Thankfully, I am there throughout the movie. I am playing one of the prominent characters in the movie. I can truly say that Geethu’s ‘Toxic’ is definitely the most rewarding experience so far,” he said.

In another interview with The Indian Express, Sudev also addressed rumours regarding the rumoured rift between Yash and Geethu, with some claiming that Yash was ghost- writing the script, falling a fallout with the director. “There is absolutely no truth at all to the rumours. The film is one of the best examples of collaborative work,” he said.

Sudev plays police officer Antonio George in the upcoming series ‘Kammattam’. In Malayalam, post ‘Kammattam’, he will be seen in ‘Udumbanchola Vision’. “I’m also doing a major Tamil web series, slated for early next year. The film OG will release soon, and it’s a significant project for me,” he said.
