The year 2019 was pivotal in Binu’s acting career. He was appreciated for his powerful, albeit brief role in Lucifer. Then came Virus, Ambili, and Helen, all career hits. After a small role in Halal Love Story in 2020, in 2021 Binu acted in the crime thriller Operation Java, where he played Joy Pulimoottil. His role in Mammootty-strarrer One was also noted.

He left his corporate job in 2018 to pursue films full-time. In 2019, Binu worked as an assistant director for Johnpaul George’s Ambili and Aashiq Abu’s Virus. He worked with Zakariya Mohammed for Halal Love Story in 2020 and Santhosh Viswanath for One in 2021.

It was sometime in the year 2015 that Binu realised that his corporate career was clipping his artistic expression. He launched an animation company in Dubai around the time and was also acting in movies, shuttling between Kerala, Bengaluru, and Dubai. Simultaneously, he developed an interest in movie directing. While he was acting in Rani Padmini in 2015, Binu, who has travelled the northern states extensively, worked with the crew of the film closely, inspiring him to pursue that interest. In 2016, he joined Johnpaul George’s Tovino-strarrer Guppy as an assistant director. In 2018, he started working with Aashiq Abu on Mayaanadhi, and has been involved with it since the conception of the story.

Despite the global recession, Binu achieved steady growth at Khan Global. He particularly enjoyed creating 3D walk-through videos and other cutting-edge technology in architectural visualisation. He stayed with Khan Global for the next decade, serving as team leader, assistant manager, and executive director of Fluid CGI, a digital studio he co-founded in 2014.

Though his father was an actor, Binu never planned on entering the movie industry. His debut role was in 2014 in Gunda, directed by Salim Baba, where he was cast alongside Kalabhavan Mani and Tini Tom. It was his acquaintance with director Aashiq Abu that got Binu his more notable roles in Aashiq’s next two movies that year—Gangster and Rani Padmini. He did Puthan Panam in 2016 and Sakhavu in 2017 and Kala Viplavam Pranayam in 2018, a role that was critically acclaimed.

After studying pre-degree at Malabar Christian College, he briefly pursued a BA in History at Zamorin's Guruvayurappan College. In 2004, Binu left for Bengaluru and joined BA Animation at Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics on a scholarship. He also briefly worked at the institute’s Koramangala centre as a faculty member before starting his own company, BlueGrass Studios, in 2006. After leaving the company due to internal issues, he freelanced for some time, before joining Khan Global Engineering Consultants Private Limited in 2007 as a 3D visualiser.

Binu Pappu (born December 13, 1982), is an Indian actor and assistant director primarily working in the Malayalam movie industry. He is the son of legendary actor Kuthiravattam Pappu. He is mainly noted for his performances in the movies Helen, One, Operation Java, and Bheemante Vazhi. An experienced animator and entrepreneur, he ventured into acting with Saleem Baba's Gunda in 2014 and has worked with directors like Aashiq Abu, Mathukutty Xavier, Tharun Moorthy, Lal Jose, Johnpaul George, Rosshan Andrrews and Khalid Rahman. He has also worked as assistant director and chief associate director in nearly a dozen movies, including Mayaanadhi, Virus, and Halal Love Story.
