From Khakhi to flying colors

The man they call the eternal cop in Malluwood is having the last laugh.

Suresh Gopi, who was written off completely, has announced his come back through the sensational hit Bharathchandran IPS.

The film once again underscored the fact that when it came to playing a robust cop, there is none to touch this big burly actor.

Buoyed by the success, Suresh Gopi has gone ahead and signed five films.

But the problem here is that the actor is constricted in his range and hence script writers are racking their brains to come up with a suitable story and script for him.

Suresh Gopi of course has a Catch-22 problem. He suits roles and characters that are heavy-handed and larger-than-life. But if he does only that he will be typecast. Yet, he can't do soft romantic roles.

So what does he have to do?
