For the last few days, there has been lots of talks about Suresh Gopi’s 250th film.

Shibin Francis of ‘CIA’ and ‘Paavada’ fame is scripting the film. It is a Kottayam-based mass entertainer in which Suresh Gopi will be seen playing a character named Kaduvakkunnel Kuruvachan.

‘SG 250’ (tentativel title) will be on the lines of Suresh Gopi’s mass entertainers from the 90s like ‘Vazhunnor’ and ‘Lelam’. The actor had recently did a photoshoot session for the film. His mass new look with the handlebar moustache had gone viral in social medias.

Vijay’s ‘Master’ is eagerly awaited for many reasons and one among them is the star-studded cast. Vijay Sethupathi, Andrea Jeremiah, Arjun Das, Malavika Mohanan, Gouri Kishan, Shanthanu Bhagyaraj and many others are part of the film. This is the first time all the above mentioned actors are working with Vijay and that further adds to the freshness factor.

While Vijay plays the role of a college professor, Vijay Sethupathi will be seen as a gangster in the film. Andrea Jeremiah is also essaying a very crucial character but the makers have been tight-lipped about the nature of her role. It is said that she is playing an action-oriented role.

In a recent interview, Andrea admitted that she has become a huge fan of Vijay after working with him in ‘Master’. She also added that she did the film for her fans who have constantly been asking about when she’ll be doing a film with Vijay.

‘Master’ was supposed to hit screens in April but due to the Covid-19 outbreak, the release plans had to be dropped. Currently, the team is busy with the final set of post-production works. The film will be releasing only after things return back to normalcy.

We had earlier reported about Rajeev Ravi directing a cop-thriller based on a real jewellery robbery that occurred in Kasargod.

Sibi Thomas, a real life policeman, has scripted the film along with Sreejith Divakaran. The former headed the jewellery-heist investigation when he was a Circle Inspector few years back. In the film, Asif Al will be seen playing this part. The makers have fictionalized the incident but the film is being shot realistically.

Bollywood-based heroine in Suresh Gopi’s 250th film?

Suresh Gopi had recently revealed a stellar mass look that he will be sporting in his 250th film. Mathew Thomas, an erstwhile associate of filmmakers Johny Antony, Ranjith Sankar, Khalid Rahman and Amal Neerad, will be directing this film. It is said to be planned as a full-on mass entertainer just like the veteran star’s blockbuster films of the 90s.

The makers are planning to cast a Bollywood based actress to play the female lead in the film. Joju George and Mukesh will also be seen in major roles. Shoot was originally supposed to begin in April but due to the lockdown, the makers had been forced to reschedule their plans.

Suresh Gopi’s next release will be ‘Kaval’ directed by Nithin Renji Panicker of ‘Kasaba’ fame. He was working on the film when the lockdown was announced. He will be moving on to Mathew Thomas’ film only after wrapping up ‘Kaval’.

After Detective, Jeethu Joseph to helm a complete investigation thriller!

Jeethu Joseph was working on ‘Ram’ with superstar Mohanlal when the lockdown was announced. The makers are now planning to shelve the film for a brief while. This is because some major portions of the film are left to be shot in UK. Due to the current scenario where countries across the world are affected by Covid-19, it is nearly impossible for any film shoot abroad.

Meanwhile, Jeethu Joseph is working on a couple of other scripts. After almost 13 years of the release of his debut film ‘Detective’ starring Suresh Gopi, the director is planning to make a full length investigative thriller. He revealed this in a recent interview with ‘The Cue’. More details regarding the cast and crew are not yet known.

However, Jeethu’s next to go on floor will not be the above mentioned investigative thriller. It is a small scale film that has a thriller tone. The entire film will be shot in Kerala and they are planning to start rolling as and when the government grants permission.

Joju George to play a major role in Suresh Gopi’s 250th film!
