Jaison Varghese or Jaison Martin Palikunnu is a fictional character primarily portrayed by Tovino Thomas who goes under the alter ego Minnal Murali, and is an original character, adapted by Arun Anirudhan and Justin Mathew.
As of 2022, the character has appeared in only one film: Minnal Murali (2021).[1] Director Basil Joseph has shown extreme interest in creating sequel to Minnal Murali. In an interview with The Indian Express, Joseph stated - "It all depends on the response and feedback we get for Minnal Murali, and then we will plan for a sequel, but we would love to do it though" - and also informed that there is an idea for the follow-up film already in place.[2] Also, Thomas's portrayal of the character has been well received.
Concept and creation[edit]
In January 2019, Tovino Thomas announced that he will collaborate with Basil Joseph for the second time after Godha (2017), for a superhero film titled Minnal Murali and Sophia Paul bankrolled this project under the Weekend Blockbusters banner.[3][4] The concept poster of this film was revealed on 21 January 2019, coinciding with the actor's birthday,[5] and it is the third superhero film produced in this year, following the Malayalam new generation movement, the other two being – Anson Paul's The Gambler and Dileep-starrer Parakkum Pappan.[6][7] Basil Joseph worked on the script for the film, while Tovino became busy on his commitments in the upcoming projects. As Tovino completed works on his films, in late-October 2019, Basil Joseph started pre-production works of the film and script reading sessions had consequently began.[8] Arun Anirudhan and Justin Mathew co-wrote the script of the film.[9] Basil Joseph stated that the film drew inspiration from My Dear Kuttichathan (1984).[10]

Basil took supervision of the computer graphics-aspect during the film's scripting stage. In an interview with The Times of India, he said that "I will be working closely with the VFX team in the pre-production stage for developing the storyboards as well as understanding what is possible before we start shooting the movie".[12] Tovino Thomas said that the film falls on the comedy genre, despite being a superhero film and will be "enjoyable to all kinds of audiences".[13] He also said that "the team had planned to present the fantasy element convincingly and realistic in some manner", by saying "If you search online, you would find several instances of those struck by a lightning, experiencing differences in their lives like being able to make a bulb glow for a second or their watches stopping. So, when high voltage courses through the body its dynamics change somewhat. In that way, it's also a realistic movie."[13] During July 2019, Aju Varghese was roped in as one of the cast members in pivotal role.[14] Varghese shared a casting call for the film's lead actress, and invited applications from the age of 20 and 28.[14] In the process, the team had cast Femina George as the heroine, whose character named as "Bruce Lee" Biji.[15][16] Tamil actor Guru Somasundaram joined the film in a pivotal role.[12] Hollywood stunt choreographer Vlad Rimburg was roped in to supervise the action sequences.[17] The technical crew consisted of cinematographer Sameer Thahir, music directors Shaan Rahman and Sushin Shyam and editor Livingston Mathew.[8] Tovino Thomas trained immensely for his role in this film in order to play the role of a superhero.[18]
