ABOUT Suresh Gopi

Suresh Gopi: From Screen Icon to Parliamentarian Suresh Gopi, a prominent figure in Malayalam cinema, has carved a unique path, transitioning seamlessly from acting to politics. Born June 26, 1958, Gopi's cinematic journey began with a child role in Odayil Ninnu (1965), culminating in a prolific career spanning over 250 films across various South Indian languages and Bollywood. His performance in Kaliyattam (1998) earned him the National Film Award for Best Actor and the Kerala State Film Award for Best Actor, solidifying his place as a cinematic icon. Beyond acting, Gopi has also distinguished himself as a playback singer and television presenter. His recent political achievements are equally noteworthy. Elected as a Member of Parliament (Lok Sabha) in 2024 from the Thrissur constituency, he became the first BJP MP from Kerala, a significant milestone for the party in the state. Currently, he serves as the Minister of State for Petroleum and Natural Gas and the Minister of Tourism (since June 2024). He also heads the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute, appointed in September 2023. His previous political engagement included a nominated Rajya Sabha membership (2016-2022). Beyond his political and cinematic roles, Gopi remains actively involved in philanthropy, social work, and environmental advocacy, showcasing his multifaceted contributions to society.
