Encyclopedia
Shafeeq is an India
n actor, primarily worked in Malayalam and Tamil
films. His debut Malayalam film Love Story was a sensational hit and he was considered as a rival to Rahman
, the romantic hero of Malayalam films. It was Shafeeq, who brought Break Dance movements in Malayalam films, but his latter movies like Naalae Njngalude Vivaham failed and he could not sustain his success. He later done low budget films like Kalpana House. Then he rechristened himself as Varun Raj and tried his luck in Tamil
films like Thoothu Po Chellakiliye ( 1991 ), Padhukappu 1993 ( 1993 ) and Athipathi ( 1997 ). Ironically his bad luck continued in Tamil
films as well.
