Suriya Embarks on Divine Journey with RJ Balaji's "Karuppu" After "Kanguva"
Suriya is set to embark on a multi-faceted journey, starting with the pan-India release of his highly anticipated film "Kanguva" on November 14th. He's then set to dive into the unique world of fantasy with "Karuppu," a film directed by comedian-turned-director RJ Balaji, where he'll portray a deity.
Inspired by Balaji's previous film, "Mukkthi Amman," "Karuppu" presents a fresh take on divine characters, shifting the focus from a female deity to a male one. This unconventional approach has sparked curiosity among fans, eager to see Suriya tackle this unique role.
Despite Balaji's limited experience with star-driven films, Suriya's confidence in the project's concept has fueled the collaboration. "Karuppu" will feature a star-studded cast, including Rukmini Vasanth and Mrunal Thakur, both making their Tamil cinema debuts.
Following a brief respite after "Kanguva," Suriya will begin shooting for "Karuppu." Plans are also underway for a sequel to "Kanguva," while his anticipated projects with Vetrimaaran ("Vadivasal") and Sudha Kongara remain on hold, as both director and actor focus on their respective commitments.
With "Kanguva" poised for a massive promotional tour across North India, and "Karuppu" promising a unique and captivating journey, Suriya continues to dominate the South Indian film industry with a diverse and compelling lineup of projects.
