The makers of the Malayalam film Varaham have confirmed that the filming of the mystery drama has been wrapped up. Suresh Gopi, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Gautham Vasudev Menon are playing the lead roles in this film.

This movie, which is slated to hit the big screen in April, is directed by Sanal V Devan. Varaham, which is Suresh Gopi's 257th project, is his highly anticipated film in 2024. Navya Nair is playing the female lead in this movie. According to reports, a Bollywood actress will also play a pivotal role in the film.

Movie enthusiasts and admirers of the actor have been eagerly anticipating the movie since the makers have disclosed so little about the plot and characters.

Suresh Gopi in a never-seen-before character

The fact that Suresh Gopi will be appearing in a role that he has never played before in his career only serves to raise expectations even more. "People presume that the actor will play a police officer or someone who is investigating if it is a Suresh Gopi film,” said Sanal in an interview with OTTplay. "Suresh Gopi would not be playing a police officer in this thriller,” he continued.

The mystery drama's screenplay is penned by Sesham Mikeil Fathima director Manu C Kumar. He told OTTplay that there would be no cliche mass scenes or investigation sequences in the movie. The scriptwriter also mentioned that a month after he gave the one-liner to Suresh Gopi, the screenplay was finished and formatted correctly.

Crew behind Varaham

The film's production began in Ernakulam on December 18. Idukki, Kollengode in Palakkad, and Ernakulam were the movie's shooting locations. Vineet Jain and Sanjay Padiyoor are producing the movie under the banners of Maverick Movies Private Limited and Sanjay Padiyoor Entertainments.

Rajasingh and Krishnakumar are the executive producers of Varaham. The soundtracks for the mystery thriller have been composed by Rahul Raj. Ajay David Kachappilly has helmed the camera work, while Mansoor Muthutty is the editor.
