Suhas
Suhas has been popping up in some seriously gripping films—Varathan (2018) being a standout. That one’s a tense, edge-of-your-seat thriller set in the lush but menacing rural backdrops of Kerala. Honestly, the guy really knows how to hold the screen. In Varathan, the quiet tension just kind of simmers, and Suhas, even in his supporting role, contributes a lot to that slow-burn vibe. The film’s basically about a couple moving from the city to the countryside, thinking they’ll find peace, and then—bam—it’s all paranoia and hidden threats. Suhas slips right into this uneasy world, making you question everyone’s motives.
And then there’s Virus (2019), which, no exaggeration, is one of the most nerve-wracking pandemic thrillers out there. Set during the Nipah virus outbreak in Kerala, it’s got this ensemble cast and Suhas fits right in, adding weight to the chaos and fear. The pacing is relentless, and you can feel the panic through the screen; Suhas’s performance is understated but crucial, grounding the hysteria with a bit of realism. He’s not the loudest in the room, but you remember him.
Jump to Maaran (2022), where the tone flips a bit—it’s a slicker, more commercial flick, all about investigative journalism, corruption, and high-stakes drama. Suhas pops up again, adapting to the faster pace and moral ambiguity. He manages to bring nuance to roles that might otherwise get lost in the shuffle of action and twists. Across these films, he’s not just a background player; he’s the kind of actor who makes you stop and notice, even if he’s only on screen for a few scenes.
