At an event organised by Behindwoods.com, a digital media organisation to recognise and honour artists, actor Navin Pauly openly overlooked actresses Nayanthara, Trisha and Nazriya and ended up choosing Sai Pallavi when asked about his choice of a female artist.

Pauly was awarded best actor award by Behindwoods. After receiving the award for Moothon an action thriller released in 2019, he was asked which artist he preferred. Pauly did not take time and announced on stage that he likes Sai Pallavi for her “homely look”.

Sai Pallavi who has become a household name after her Rowdy Baby performance in Maari 2, while listening to Pauly's confession could not hide her blush.

Pauly who debuted with Malarvaadi Arts Club in 2009 bagged a lead role in Thattathin Marayathu, a romantic drama in 2012.

However, it was '1983 Bangalore Days' a sports drama that took him to new heights as the actor went on to bag honours after honours. From Filmfare South to SIIMA awards, Pauly made an impact in the minds of directors.
