He portrayed the role of an immigrant, who is tortured and treated like a slave in a desert of Saudi Arabia. He played a notable role in Sunil Ibrahim's Chapters (2012). However the movie was a failure at box office. After playing some usual sidekick and other minor roles in movies such as Annayum Rasoolum (2013) and Ee adutha Kalathu (2012), Shine got his breakthrough with the 2014 fantasy comedy Ithihasa directed by Binu S. Shine played the lead role in the film which deals with body swapping and it turned out to be of the highest grossing Malayalam movies in 2014.[7] He was praised for his strong negative shade role in Kammatipaadam (2016). The same year he played a notable role in Ann Maria Kalippilaanu. Shine played the lead roles as Antony in Dum and Kinder in Popcorn, both released in 2016. However, both movies were not successful at the box office.[8]

In 2017, Shine played some notable roles in movies such as Godha, Tiyaan, Varnyathil Aashanka, Parava and Mayanadhi.[9] Shine played the lead role in Who (2018) which is the first Malayalam movie dealing with time travel.[10] Same year, he played a lead role in Ottakkoru Kamukan, which received mixed reviews from critics.

Shine's villainous performance in Ishq (2019) was critically acclaimed despite the movie receiving negative reviews from most critics.[11][12] He portrayed Alwin, a moral police who intervenes in the privacy of a couple. The Hindu described Alwin as one of the most despicable villainous roles in Malayalam cinema of the decade.[13] He played a lead role in the fantasy comedy Mask, which also deals with body swapping. Shine's performance in Khalid Rahman's black comedy Unda (2019) was appraised. Some critics listed Unda as one of the best Malayalam movies of the decade.[14]

In 2020, Shine had notable roles in Bhoomiyile Manohara Swakaryam and Maniyarayile Ashokan. The same year he played the lead role in Khalid Rahman's thriller Love, which received mixed reviews. The movie had a late release in India on 29 January 2021.[15] In 2021, he played as police officer in Operation Java and Wolf. Both movies were critically acclaimed.[16] He also had a notable role in Anugraheethan Antony. Shine has also a notable role in the latest OTT release Kuruthi starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, Roshan Mathew and more.[17]

Shine is set to make his Tamil debut with Beast, an action drama starring Thalapathy Vijay in the lead role.[18]
