Career[edit]
He began his acting career in Malayalam television serials.
He became popular for his roles in two popular series on Asianet called Swapnam
and Megham, the former one directed by K. K. Rajeev. Anoop made his debut as a
screenwriter in Pakal Nakshatrangal with Mohanlal playing father and Anoop
playing his son.[9]
He also played main character in Thirakkatha by Ranjith,
portraying different stages in the life of film star Ajay Chandran, loosely
based on the personal life of Kamal Hassan. His co-stars were Priyamani and
Prithviraj.[10]
Beautiful is a 2011 Malayalam thriller film written by Anoop
Menon and directed by V. K. Prakash. The film stars Jayasurya, Anoop Menon and
Meghana Raj in the lead roles. It tells the story about the intense bonding of
two friends, one paraplegic and other a musician. The film released on 2
December 2011 and became a huge success. Beautiful was Anoop Menon's debut work
as a lyricist. Menon says his debut as a lyricist was quite accidental.
"On the second day of the shooting of Beautiful, music director Rateesh
Vega, actor Jayasurya, and I were chilling out in Rateesh's car, when he asked
me to pen some lines to try out a tune he'd composed for the film. The result
is Mazhaneer Thullikal...," says the actor.
