From cop to a CM

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,December 02 2005]

Suresh Gopi is perhaps the most well known cop that Kerala Police has not had so far.

The man has khakhi attached to his skin, almost.

But for Anil C Menon's Rashtram, he is going one step higher.

He is playing a politico, and yes, a Chief Minister.

Laya is the heroine and a plays a medical student.

Suresh Gopi is Maliackal Thommi, who becomes the chief minister, quite unexpectedly. He is a timber merchant who ends up at the top post due to convoluted politics of the State

But Anil says the film is a family entertainer and not a political film.

Suresh Gopi has a film with Jeyaraj. His Lanka with A.K. Sajan is all set to roll soon and Shaji Kailas’ The Tiger will hit the theatres soon.

Rashtram is slated for January release.
