Malayalam superstar Mohanlal has joined the Kerala government's anti-narcotics campaign, Operation Toofan, as a 'Toofan Warrior'. 

Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said Mohanlal formally associated himself with the campaign during an event in Thodupuzha. The minister said the actor has been actively involved in anti-drug awareness initiatives and has extended his full support to the government's efforts.

According to Chennithala, Mohanlal has been running an awareness initiative called Vishwashanthi, named after his parents, for the past three years. The minister added that more prominent personalities, including members of the film industry, would be brought on board to strengthen public participation in the anti-drug movement.

Launched soon after the UDF government assumed office, Operation Toofan aims to curb drug trafficking, sale and consumption through coordinated enforcement, intelligence-sharing and public outreach. The campaign currently operates through three pillars-  Toofan Strikes, Toofan Warriors and Toofan Care, combining enforcement, community participation and rehabilitation efforts.
