Meesha Madhavan (lit. 'Moustache Madhavan') is a 2002 Indian Malayalam-language action comedy film directed by Lal Jose and written by Ranjan Pramod. The film stars Dileep in the title role, while Kavya Madhavan, Indrajith Sukumaran, Jagathy Sreekumar, Harisree Asokan and Cochin Haneefa play supporting roles. It was the highest-grossing Malayalam film of the year and also subsequently became an industry hit after Thenkasipattanan. Meesha Madhavan raised Dileep's superstardom to a whole new level and developed a cult following in Malayalam cinema.[2] It was remade in Telugu as Dongodu (2003) starring Ravi Teja, in Kannada as Hori (2011) starring Vinod Prabhakar and in Tamil as Kollaikaran (2012) starring Vidharth.[3]
