Suriya unleashes divine fury in first look of ‘Karuppu'
The first look of Suriya's much-awaited film Karuppu has taken fans by storm, showcasing the versatile actor in a raw, intense avatar unlike anything he's done before. Directed by RJ Balaji, the film marks a bold departure from Balaji's usual comedic fare, venturing into the realm of culturally rich, high-octane action drama. In the striking poster, Suriya is seen walking through a vibrant folk procession, dressed in a traditional black lungi and shirt. A cigarette rests casually on his lips, while masked performers and pounding drums in the background lend a ritualistic and powerful atmosphere. The visual clearly establishes Karuppu as a film deeply rooted in Tamil folklore and divine symbolism. Titled after the revered folk deity Karuppusamy, the film appears to channel themes of justice, vengeance, and divine protection, with Suriya possibly portraying a guardian-like figure guided by moral fury. Adding to the excitement, Karuppu marks the reunion of Suriya and Trisha Krishnan after nearly two decades, bringing back a beloved on-screen pair that fans have long been waiting for. Produced by Dream Warrior Pictures, the film is touted to be one of the banner's most ambitious and expensive projects to date. It also boasts a solid technical crew, with Sai Abhyankkar composing the music, GK Vishnu handling cinematography, and Kalaivanan taking charge of the edit table. With its arresting visuals and mythic undertones, Karuppu promises to be a gritty, unforgettable cinematic experience.

'Karuppu' teaser out: Suriya unites with RJ Balaji for an adrenaline-packed actioner
The makers of actor Suriya's latest movie Karuppu released a teaser and posters on the occasion of his 50th birthday. Going by the looks of it, the movie promises an action-packed ride. Directed by stand-up comedian-turned-filmmaker RJ Balaji — who rose to fame with prank calls and witty movie reviews on FM radio — Karuppu marks his first collaboration with Suriya, who is fresh off the success of Retro. The movie stars Trisha Krishnan, Yogi Babu, Natarajan Subramaniam and the Malayalam stars Indrans and Swasika. Produced by Dream Warrior Pictures, Karuppu has Sai Abhyankkar composing its music, a relative newbie in the film industry. He shot to fame with the indie breakout number Katchi sera and followed it up with the chartbuster Aasai kooda. Talking about uncharted territories, the action genre is new for Balaji, too, whose filmography comprises the political satire LKG; the fantasy comedy Mookkuththi Amman; and Veetla Visesham, a remake of the Bollywood dramedy Badhaai Ho. Yet, Balaji promises an action flick that might be what fans of Suriya ordered. In Karuppu, he plays a lawyer by day and a vigilante at dusk, avatars that might be apt crowd pleasers. The teaser is full of meta references: Suriya introduces himself as Saravanan, his real name. The stylish finger gesture from Ghajini is back, and his role as barrister harks back to his role in the critically acclaimed Jai Bhim. There is also a reference to Rajinikanth's cult classic Baasha, when he leans on a table confidently and says he has another name — a line that occupies prime space in Tamil pop culture. Actor Dulquer Salmaan released the teaser's Malayalam version on social media. GK Vishnu is the movie's cinematographer, while R Kalaivanan is its editor. Suriya was last seen in the action thriller Retro, directed by Karthik Subburaj. The movie was a hit at the box office, erasing memories of his earlier movie Kanguvaa, also starring Disha Patani, that was critically panned. Trisha Krishnan's previous movie was Mani Ratnam's Thug Life.
