Basil Joseph’s Minnal Murali that has given India one of its few home-grown superheroes on screen has created a big buzz among film lovers in Kerala. Now the Kerala Police too has joined in the conversation, coming up with their own version of the Netflix film.
In the film, Tovino Thomas, who plays the role of Jasion and the superhero, goes up against the antagonist Selvan, played by Guru Somasundaram. However, in the Kerala Police version, the law enforcement agency always shows up in time when something bad is going down. The cops appear at a lightning speed in a nod to the film’s title.
The cops imbibe Minnal Murali’s spirit and are seen as saviours in every difficult situation. Be it a woman being harassed by a stalker or a child moments away from meeting with an accident — a lightning quick cop is always there to save the day.
