Panorama Studios Joins Hands With Nivin Pauly for a Landmark ₹100 Crore Multi-Film Deal
In a massive move that highlights the growing synergy between the Hindi and Malayalam film industries, Panorama Studios, led by Kumar Mangat Pathak and Abhishek Pathak, has announced a historic partnership with Malayalam superstar Nivin Pauly. The two powerhouses have signed a ₹100 crore multi-film deal, aimed at producing a diverse slate of Malayalam feature films. This collaboration marks one of the most significant financial commitments by a Bollywood production house toward regional Malayalam cinema in recent years. The deal will see Kumar Mangat Pathak and Abhishek Pathak (the makers behind the blockbuster Drishyam franchise and Raid) collaborating directly with Nivin Pauly, who will not only lead the projects as an actor but will also be involved in the production aspect. The partnership is set to produce a series of films with a cumulative budget of ₹100 crores, showcasing the high production value and scale that Panorama Studios intends to bring to the Malayalam market.

The primary objective of this collaboration is to create cinema that resonates with a Pan-India audience while maintaining the strong storytelling roots that the Malayalam industry is globally renowned for. This move is expected to give Malayalam cinema an even larger footprint in both domestic and international markets. Industry analysts view this as a strategic Masterstroke for both parties. For Panorama Studios, this provides a solid entry into the high-quality Malayalam content space, which has been performing exceptionally well on OTT and in dubbed formats. For Nivin Pauly, who has been consistently pushing the envelope with films like Premam, Moothon, and Kayamkulam Kochunni, this deal provides the financial backing to execute large-scale visions that can compete on a global stage. The first few projects under this historic banner are expected to go on floors later this year. With the combined expertise of Abhishek Pathak's modern filmmaking approach and Nivin Pauly’s immense popularity, this deal is set to redefine the commercial landscape of South Indian cinema.
