Bharathchandran I.P.S is a 2005 Indian Malayalam action film directed by Ranji Panicker, starring Suresh Gopi, Saikumar, Rajan P. Dev, Mamukkoya, Shreya Reddy, Lalu Alex. It was a big success in Kerala like its prequel Commissioner, released 11 years ago.

In this movie, Suresh Gopi plays the title role of Bharatchandran IPS, a righteous City Police Commissioner who doesn't mind assaulting even his superior officers and powerful politicians while staging a one-man-fight against the corrupt political machinery prevailing in the state.

This movie was the come back film for Superstar Suresh Gopi that gave him a break after numerous flops and made him prevail in the film industry.The movie begins with communal riots erupting in Malabar, after the murder of Mayambaram Baba (Sreeraman), an iconic Muslim leader. Baba is murdered amidst tight security in the premises of a special court in Mangalore where he was supposed to give evidence about the foul play behind an earlier communal riot. The evil syndicate headed by 'Janab' Hyderali Hassan (Saikumar) which felt that their existence will be questioned if Baba were to reveal the truths about the communal violence riots incited by them, silences him using a hired killer, Kala Purohit Khan. As a matter of fact, the communal violence following Baba's murder are triggered and intensified by Hyderali himself, to throw the region in a state of chaos. He has other sinister motives also, like having the huge amount of land left behind by the fleeing population to himself for building a private sea port through which he hopes to pump illicit money, drugs and weapons into the state.

Bharatchandran makes a late entry into the film, almost near the end of the first half. The Chief Minister of the state, Thomas Chacko (Vijayaraghavan) entrusts the investigation of the Baba murder with Bharatchandran. He and his team of an assistant officer Anwar (Madhu Warrier) and Dy. SP Pookkoya (Rajan P Dev) report to IG of Police Habib Basheer (Lalu Alex). Bharatchandran works his way into the hierarchy of the Hyderali syndicate, starting with Shweta Nachappa, a Karnataka police officer who was on duty on the day of the murder and who seemed to know about the murder beforehand. Hyderali silences Shweta after he finds out that Bharatchandran is trailing her. This doesn't seem to deter him, he spits fire as he courses his way through to Hyderali.
