Shine Tom Chacko

Actor · Born September 15, 1983 (43) · Chalakudy, Kerala, India

Shine Tom Chacko is an Indian actor primarily working in Malayalam cinema. He pursued his B.Com degree from St. Thomas College, Thrissur. Commencing his journey in the entertainment industry as an assistant director under Kamal during the 2000s, Chacko made his on-screen debut in Kamal's comedy-drama film, Nammal (2002). However, his official debut occurred with the film Khaddama (2011), following which he took on minor roles in movies such as Ee Adutha Kaalath (2012) and Annayum Rasoolum (2013). Nevertheless, Shine's significant breakthrough came with the fantasy comedy film Ithihasa (2014), which emerged as the highest-grossing Malayalam film of 2014.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
