Nivin's bad acting

One thing that really stands up in this movie is how poor an actor Nivin Pauly is when he is outside of his comfort zone even slightly. He really is unable to pull off even one scene with 100% conviction.
Kudos to Amala Paul for taking up this role and agreeing to appear without make up. She did a fairly decent job.
Though the intention of the makers were good, it couldn't help the movie from being slow and un-engaging.
