Randaam Bhaavam
Director Lal Jose’s third film Randaam Bhaavam is being readied for release. (His earlier films were Oru Maravaththoor Kanavu and Chandranudikkunna Dikkil). Produced under the banner of Jayathara by K Manoharan, the film was a bit delayed owing to veteran actor Thilakan getting hospitalised and then advised bed rest. Now that Thilakan is well, the film is nearing completion and getting ready for release.

Govindji is one of the most dreaded names in the Mangalore underworld. This ghazal loving underworld don has with him, as his trusted lieutenant, Kishan, a youth who has proved himself to be smart, intelligent and dependable. Kishan, who had been groomed in underworld activities under Mohammed Ibrahim in Goa, leaves Ibrahim and later joins Govindji. Kishan has proved himself a tough underworld man. It is then that Akhila, a bank employee, enters his life and touches a different chord in his heart. Kishan finds himself in a very delicate situation. He cannot bring himself to reveal his true identity and profession to Akhila and at the same time he does not like hiding the truth from her. Back home, Kishan is a different person amongst his parents and sisters. A man whom everyone fears in Mangalore, Kishan is still afraid of his father. It is these different faces of Kishan that Lal Jose has tried to etch in Randaam Bhaavam.

Suresh Gopi plays Kishan while Thilakan is Govindji and Poornima Mohan, Akhila. Lal is Mohammed Ibrahim while Biju Menon again appears as a tough cop Jeevan IPS. Others in the cast include Janardhanan, Nedumudi Venu, Oduvil Unnikrishnan, Narendra Prasad, Nadirsha, Sreevidya, Lena and Ambili. Ranjan Pramod does the story and script while the Gireesh Puthencherry-Vidyasagar team to work behind the songs. The film is to be released by Sagar Movies, Amma Arts and Rajasree Pictures.
