Naslen is putting his first Tamil outing to the test with audiences. The Malayalam actor, who is set to appear in Suriya’s upcoming film ‘Scene’, has invited viewers to judge his performance and tell him whether he should continue exploring Tamil cinema or remain focused on Malayalam films.

At a promotional event in Dubai, Naslen spoke about the significance of the project and his willingness to learn from audience reactions. The actor, who takes on a villainous role in ‘Scene’, said he was open to criticism as he ventured into an unfamiliar film industry.

“This is my first Tamil film, and it is very special. After watching the film, you, the audience, should tell me whether I should stick to Malayalam cinema alone. Watch the film on November 6 and share your opinions. If there are any mistakes, please point them out. I will correct them. I play a slightly different character in this film. I hope to continue receiving everyone’s love,” he said, as quoted by Asianet News.

A new screen image for Naslen

Audiences familiar with Naslen’s Malayalam filmography will see him in a different light in ‘Scene’. The actor plays an antagonist, a shift from the roles that have established him in Malayalam cinema. The recently released glimpse offered viewers a preview of this change in screen persona.
