Right after director Vinayan announced his project titled Pious Tenth Garden based on the infamous Sister Abhaya murder case, director K. Madhu has announced Convent, a sequel to their movie Crime File, which is also based on the same incident. The cast and crew are are yet to be finalized; Crime File had Suresh Gopi playing the lead role of a top police officer.

The 16 year old case again became the talk of the town when, two weeks ago, the CBI nabbed two Catholic priests and a nun in connection with the murder of Sister Abhaya. In Crime File, there have been hints of the priests’ involvement but in the end, the real culprit is shown as a layman who had a grudge against Sister Abhaya. With the arrest of the priests and the nun, the story is taking an interesting turn; it is heard that the new film will focus on the facts which were omitted in the earlier version.

Crime File was a huge hit not only because of the public interest in the murder of an innocent nun but also because its tight script, punch dialogues and the thrilling climax.
