About Aavesham

Directed by Jithu Madhavan, Aavesham tells the story of three college students Aju (Hipzster), Bibi (Mithun Jai Shankar) and Shanthan (Roshan Shahnavaz) who seek the help of a local rowdy called Ranga (Fahadh) when they’re horribly bullied by Kutty (Midhutty) and his friends. In a bid to gain Ranga’s loyalty and take revenge against Kutty, they go too far and find themselves in situations they didn’t sign up for.

Recently, the film was criticised by a Catholic priest from Kerala for ‘promoting violence and alcohol use’ and the song Illuminati for ‘destroying values’, reports Onmanorama. Bishop Joseph Kariyil also criticised the hit films Premalu and Manjummel Boys for showing similar scenes involving smoking and drinking while speaking at a children’s event in Kerala.

Upcoming work

Varun was last seen in the 2023 film Bawaal with Janhvi Kapoor. It told the story of a couple that struggles to make their marriage work. He will soon be seen in Kalees’ Baby John, which is a Hindi remake of Atlee’s 2016 film Theri. The film stars Keerthy Suresh and Wamiqa Gabbi also. He will also star in Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, directed by Shashank Khaitan with Janhvi and Sanya Malhotra.
