Tovino Thomas is the third Malayalee actor to receive the golden visa.
South Indian actor Tovino Thomas has been granted a Golden Visa by the UAE.
He took to his social media pages to announce the news. “Extremely grateful to receive the Golden Visa for the UAE. Truly honoured and humbled. Looking forward to a memorable association with this beautiful nation!! (sic),” tweeted Tovino.
It makes Tovino Thomas the third Malayalee actor to receive the golden visa after superstars Mammootty and Mohanlal. The two stalwarts of Malayalam cinema received the golden visa last week during their trip to Dubai. Bollywood stars Sanjay Dutt and Suniel Shetty have also received the same.
Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, approved the issuance of a 10-year golden visa last year for professionals in a bid to keep the “talented people and great minds” in the Gulf country and help in nation-building.
Thomas is currently awaiting the release of his new movie, Minnal Murali. The superhero film was supposed to be released in cinemas earlier this year.
