Soothran (Malayalam: സൂത്രൻ) is the titular protagonist of the Indian comic series that appears regularly in the comic magazine Balarama. The comics are conceptualized by Luis Fernandes (the editor of Tinkle) and NM Mohan, written by Madhavan Namboothiri and illustrated currently by Simi Muhamma.[1][2]

The story revolves around a smart, tricky and clever jackal named Soothran who lives in a cave in the jungle. His best friend, Sheru, is a dumb and cowardly tiger. The strips depict the adventures of the two friends, and is noted for its funny twist endings. Most of the characters are anthropomorphic, walk on their hind legs and use a common language for communication.
