Ekalavyan is a 1993 Indian Malayalam-language neo-noir action thriller film directed by Shaji Kailas, written by Renji Panicker and produced by P. V. Gangadharan. The film stars Suresh Gopi, alongside Siddique, Geetha, Narendra Prasad, Vijayaraghavan, Ganesh Kumar, Janardhanan, Madhu, Maathu, Jagathy Sreekumar, Kuthiravattam Pappu and Devan.[1][2]
Ekalavyan became a blockbuster and ran for 200 days in theatres. With consecutive box office hits from The News, Thalastaanam, Mafia and Ekalavyan, Suresh Gopi was catapulted to the status of a matinée idol. After the success of the 1994 film Commissioner in Andhra Pradesh, the film was released in Telugu as CBI Officer and became a commercial success. The film was remade in Hindi as Singham Returns.[3][4]
