In the new image, Tovino can be seen in the attire of a boxer, and he flaunts his six-pack abs in style. The actor has also sported a beard, and the dark background gives a rusty look to the image.

Tovino Thomas, in his Facebook post, revealed that the image was captured by acclaimed cinematographer Jomon T John whose latest passion is still photography.

"One of the ace cinematographers of the country found a new interest during the lockdown, and I'm glad to be part of it. Thank you Jomon T john for the new hobby of photography, for featuring me, and for the kickass pics. Also thanks to Jishad Shamsudeen for the cool styling, @foodie_muscle_man for the support and of course my trainer Ali Askar who is the biggest factor to keep me motivated and focused during the lockdown and made me 'fit' for the purpose," Tovino captioned the image.

The image shared by Tovino has already gone viral, and people have started him calling the man who loved iron. However, some skeptics are not impressed with the style of Tovino, and they claim that ultra muscular looks are not suitable for a Malayalam hero.
