Suresh Gopi is a popular Malayalam actor but so far he has appeared in only one Hindi movie. Read on to know more about the movie and Suresh Gopi's role in it.
Suresh Gopi is one of the most famous Malayalam actors who is known for his amazing screen presence. But while everyone seems aware of his Mollywood work, few know that he also appeared in a Hindi movie. Here's more on it.
More about Suresh Gopi's only Hindi movie
Back in 1988, Suresh Gopi made his first and only appearance in a Hindi movie. He appeared in a supporting role in the movie New Delhi. It is a remake of a popular Malayalam film of the same name.
The plot of New Delhi revolves around an honest journalist, Vijay Kumar. After he exposes the corrupt practices of two politicians, he is beaten so much so that he becomes partly paralyzed and also gets imprisoned. Directed by the Mollywood filmmaker, Joshiy, the movie casts Jeetendra and Sumalatha in the lead. In New Delhi, Suresh Gopi appeared in the role of the boyfriend of one of the politician's sister.
The Malayalam New Delhi was a roaring success, especially among the 'Jeetu' fans. However, unlike the Malayalam version, the Hindi remake of Suresh Gopi's New Delhi did not work at the box office. The movie had the same supporting cast as the original version and the Bollywood audience failed to resonate with them.
Meanwhile, Suresh Gopi is celebrating his 61st birthday today, that is June 26, 2020. Many celebrities like Dulquer Salman and Mohanlal took to their social media to wish the star. Check out Suresh Gopi's birthday wishes here:
