Abin Rajesh

Abin Rajesh has this knack for picking projects that carve out their own weird little space in cinema. You look at "Dasara," and it’s got grit caked under its nails—raw, grungy, and not afraid to get a bit messy. The guy’s got a way of making even the smallest gestures feel loaded, like there’s a whole world behind a look or a pause. And then, bam, you’ve got "Alidu Ulidavaru" (2019), which just swings you into a different lane—psychological, kind of trippy, and it messes with your head in all the best ways. Honestly, it’s like Abin slips into these roles like second skins, even when the characters are clearly chewing glass on the inside. Then you see "Paru Parvathy" (2025) pop up on the horizon, and everyone’s got their eyes peeled. There’s buzz, there’s mystery, and sure, maybe some skepticism because that’s just how folks are nowadays. But Abin’s track record makes you think, “Alright, what’s he going to pull off this time?” It’s not just about the plot—it’s about the way he carries the movie, almost like he’s dragging the whole thing uphill by himself, but somehow making it look easy. You get this sense that he’s not just acting, he’s living out these stories, making the audience believe in every messy, complicated, beautiful bit. And that’s rare, right? Not every actor can pull that off without looking like they’re trying too hard. Abin just lets it happen.
