The BJP central leadership has been trying for a long time to give Suresh a bigger role in the party, but he was reluctant to take it up, as he was not ready to completely abandon the film field.
Suresh Gopi fought the 2019 Lok Sabha polls from the Thrissur constituency and also in the 2021 Assembly polls from Thrissur constituency and he put up a good show.
