Suresh Gopi to essay two phases of his character's life

The movie, much like Suresh Gopi's recent films such as Kaaval, will have essay two phases of his character's life.

Suresh Gopi is back as a cop

Suresh Gopi's movies that had him as a police officer had gone on to create records in the box office, not just in Malayalam but also in other South industries back in the 90s. Paappan, which will once again have the actor play a cop after a huge gap, could restart that trend for the veteran star-turned-politician.
