In what could be easily considered the mother of all announcements in Kollywood in recent times, Dream Warrior Pictures took everybody by surprise when they revealed that Suriya and Selvaraghavan are teaming up next.
While most people expected a reunion of Suriya and Gautham Menon, especially after the latter admitted in his recent interviews of a possible collaboration very soon. But when it was finally announced that Suriya is teaming up with the Pudhupettai filmmaker, the news did leave even non-Suriya fans in a state of shock.
Expected to go on the floors early next year, the project marks the first time partnering of Suriya and Selvaraghavan, who is known for his films with dark undertones and currently awaits the release of SJ Suryah-starrer horror-thriller Nenjam Marappathillai. Following the announcement of the project on Thursday night, Selva expressed excitement on his Twitter page, calling Suriya one of the finest actors in India. Tentatively titled Suriya 36, it’s believed that the project might feature the music of Yuvan Shankar Raja. The other cast and crew are yet to be finalized.
Meanwhile, the principal shooting of Suriya’s Thaana Serntha Kootam, which will be helmed by Vignesh Shivan, will commence from Saturday. The project is believed to be a heist comedy and even rumoured to be a remake of Akshay Kumar’s Special 26.
