Career

edit

While pursuing his profession as a graphic designer, Prinz Nithik trained under stunt choreographer Pandiyan, and sought to make a career as an actor.[1] Prinz became acquainted with actor Vishal after meeting him at a film function, and the actor had revealed that Prinz would have been an ideal for a villainous role in Pandiya Naadu, but the team had already chosen another actor.[2] Vishal agreed to work with Prinz at a later date, while director Shakti Rajan chose to introduce him as the antagonist in another film Naaigal Jaakirathai (2014), for which he worked closely with a Belgian Shepherd. Vishal later signed him on to appear in Naan Sigappu Manithan (2014), in which he played a similar negative role.[3] Both films won positive reviews and performed well at the box office.[4] In 2015, he portrayed a supporting antagonist in Venkat Prabhu's Massu Engira Masilamani (2015).
