Tamil star hero Suriya is a pretty known face for Telugu audience. He developed a strong market in two Telugu speaking states from the times of ‘Ghazini’ and his upcoming film ‘Memu’ has been a eye catcher for family audience. Titled as ‘Pasanga 2: Haiku’ in Tamil, directed by Pandiraj is purely a children’s flick with striking innocence of kids attracting in teasers.
To our audience information, Suriya and Amala Paul are not the leads in the film. They are just doing extended cameos while Karthik Kumar, Bindu Madhavi along with child artists like Kavin, Abhiman and Nayana are the central attractions. Concepts revolving around our educational system and burdening of tender brains are very rarely dealt in commercial main stream cinema. It was ‘Taare Zameen Par’ from Aamir Khan which can be remembered for a long time.
Watching Suriya’s histrionics in ‘Memu’ teaser and the pain undergone by parents, students showed lot of similarities with Aamir and ‘TZP.’ A film with good purpose always has bright chances to strike with Telugu audience. So, ‘Memu’ can be one more good film from Suriya we have to wait for.
