Vysakh's latest directorial venture, Turbo, hit cinemas on May 23, 2024. The film revolves around Turbo Jose, a jeep driver from Idukki, who finds himself in trouble and is forced to move to Chennai after becoming entangled in the romantic complications between his best friend Jerry and a girl named Indu. However, unexpected challenges await him in Chennai, particularly in the form of Vetrivel and others.

Mammootty stars in the lead role, while Kannada actor Raj B Shetty makes his Malayalam debut as the antagonist. Sunil, known for his roles in Pushpa, KGF, and Jailer, debuts in Malayalam cinema as the comic character Auto Billa. The cast also includes Anjana Jayaprakash, Bindu Panicker, Shabareesh Varma, and Dileesh Pothan.
Regrettably, Turbo fell victim to piracy on its release day. Reports indicate that the movie was illegally uploaded on torrent sites like MovieRulz, Tamilrockers, 1337x, and various Telegram channels in HD quality. This incident highlights a persistent issue in the film industry, where movies are often leaked online before or shortly after their official release, despite ongoing efforts to combat piracy. ‘Mammootty Pride of Kerala’!
