What happens

Commissioner is a 1994 Indian Malayalam-language action thriller film directed by Shaji Kailas, written by Renji Panicker, and produced by M. Mani under Sunitha Productions. It stars Suresh Gopi, alongside Ratheesh, Shobana, Vijayaraghavan, M. G. Soman, Rajan P. Dev, K. B. Ganesh Kumar, N. F. Varghese, Karamana Janardanan Nair and Maniyanpilla Raju. The musical score was composed by Rajamani, while the cinematography and editing were handled by Dinesh Baboo and L. Bhoominathan respectively. Commissioner became a major commercial success at the box office, with dialogues of Gopi becoming catchphrase among Malayali audience. The film was significant in making Gopi a prominent star in Malayalam cinema. The Telugu dubbed version Police Commissioner was also a major commercial success. The sequel titled Bharath Chandran I.P.S. was released in 2005, with Renji Panicker replacing Shaji Kailas as the director. In 2012, a crossover film titled The King & the Commissioner, with the characters from The King (which was released in 1995) and Commissioner, was released in 2012. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
