Following the big success of sequels like ‘2 Harihar Nagar’, director Renji Panikkar is also planning to do a sequel to his super hit movie ‘Pathram’, which was directed by veteran Joshy.

The original which came out in the late nineties was told in the backdrop of the newspaper industry and had some effective punchlines and great performances by Suresh Gopi, Manju Warrier, N F Varghese and Biju Menon.

According to Renji Panikkar, the sequel will also feature Suresh Gopi in the lead, where his character will be elevated to the position of a Managing Editor of a Daily. In the new movie, this uncompromising fighter will take on the state government.

The villain character will be played by Aashish Vidyarthi who will don the character of a State Politician facing a CBI investigation against a massive corruption scandal. The movie will present a parody of the present state administration and will feature bombastic dialogues from the writer - director.
