Bharathchandran I.P.S is a 2005 action Malayalam movie directed by Ranji Panicker, starring Suresh Gopi, Saikumar, Rajan P. Dev, Mamukkoya, Shreya Reddy, Lalu Alex, etc. It was a big success in Kerala like its prequel Commissioner, released 10 year ago.

In this movie, Suresh Gopi plays the title role of Bharatchandran IPS, a righteous City Police Commissioner who doesn't mind assaulting even his superior officers and powerful politicians while staging a one-man-fight against the corrupt political machinery prevailing in the state. This was the come back film for Suresh Gopi that gave him a break after numerous flops and made him prevail in the film industry. This was also a major break through for Renji Panicker, who was not successful with his previous films Dubai and Praja.

Plot

This movie was the come back film for Superstar Bharath Suresh Gopi that gave him a break after numerous flops and made him prevail in the film industry.The movie begins with communal riots erupting in Malabar, after the murder of Mayambaram Baba (Sreeraman), an iconic Muslim leader. Baba is murdered amidst tight security in the premises of a special court in Mangalore where he was supposed to give evidence about the foul play behind an earlier communal riot. The evil syndicate headed by 'Janab' Hyderali Hassan (Saikumar) which felt that their existence will be questioned if Baba were to reveal the truths about the communal violence riots incited by them, silences him using a hired killer, Kala Purohit Khan. As a matter of fact, the communal violence following Baba's murder are triggered and intensified by Hyderali himself, to throw the region in a state of chaos. He has other sinister motives also, like having the huge amount of land left behind by the fleeing population to himself for building a private sea port through which he hopes to pump illicit money, drugs and weapons into the state.

Bharatchandran makes a late entry into the film, almost near the end of the first half. The Chief Minister of the state, Thomas Chacko (Vijayaraghavan) entrusts the investigation of the Baba murder with Bharatchandran. He and his team of an assistant officer Anwar (Madhu Warrier) and Dy. SP Pookkoya (Rajan P Dev) report to IG of Police Habib Basheer (Lalu Alex). Bharatchandran works his way into the hierarchy of the Hyderali syndicate, starting with Shweta Nachappa, a Karnataka police officer who was on duty on the day of the murder and who seemed to know about the murder beforehand. Hyderali silences Shweta after he finds out that Bharatchandran is trailing her. This doesn't seem to deter him, he spits fire as he courses his way through to Hyderali.

Mentions are made about Bharatchandran's past during the nine years that is supposed to have elapsed since he terminated Mohan Thomas. Incidentally, this is the actual time-frame between the release of the two movies. He is told to have been under suspension for the major part of that time and even served a term in jail for his actions. His love interest, the lawyer Indu (Shobhana) eventually became his wife and got him acquitted of his charges. She was shot dead by Mohan Thomas's goons on the day of Bharatchandran's acquittal. Bharatchandran has a daughter aged ten who amusingly has her mother's name.

Ironically, the Chief Minister himself is shown to be part of the dark side. IG Habib Basheer, who is like an elder brother to Bharatchandran, is killed while trying to save him from the bullets of Kala Purohit's gang. The enraged-beyond-limits Bharatchandran confronts Hyderali for the final showdown, flanked by Anwar and Pookkoya and flaunting a captured Kala Purohit. The final scene is worlds different from its predecessor which shows Bharatchandran shooting numerous henchmen and torching an entire warehouse to kill Mohan Thomas. There is no unnecessary bloodshed here; after giving an empty revolver to Kala and asking him to shoot Hyderali, Bharatchandran kills Kala when he tries to shoot him instead. He soon places a bullet on Hyderali, before the very eyes of the scared-beyond-wits Chief Minister who is witness to the entire scene.
