After experiencing a huge debacle with his recent release, ‘Kanguva, a fantasy action drama, Suriya has officially kickstarted his next project in collaboration with RJ Balaji through a traditional pooja ceremony held earlier today.
Marking the auspicious occasion of Ekadasi, Suriya’s much-anticipated venture, tentatively titled ‘Suriya 45,’ began its shooting in Pollachi with a traditional grand pooja ceremony. The actor-turned-director RJ Balaji, who acted in and directed multiple films of his own, will be helming this project.
Touted to be a complete entertainer with a blend of action and comedy, the film is produced on a grand scale by Dream Warrior Pictures. Directed by RJ Balaji, the project will commence its first schedule in Coimbatore from November 28, with key sequences featuring Suriya and other cast members.
It is reported that the makers are considering Trish Krishnan as the female lead. If these are true, the film will mark her on-screen reunion with Suriya after almost two decades. The pair was last seen in the action thriller ‘Aaru,’ which was released in 2005.
Musical maestro AR Rahman will be composing the musical tunes for this flick. GK Vishnu handles the cinematography. The makers are planning to release the film later next year, 2025.
In the meantime, Suriya will be seen in the theaters with Suriya 44, directed by Karthik Subbaraj. Pooja Hegde portrays the female lead alongside Suriya. The film is scheduled for a summer 2025 release.
