Actor-producer Suriya is currently basking in the fame of his recent release Karuppu, helmed by RJ Balaji. The film recently breached the Rs 130 crore mark in Tamil Nadu alone, becoming the first in Suriya's career to cross the landmark in the state. While he already has Vishwanath & Sons, directed by Venky Atluri up for release in July this year and an untitled Suriya 47 from Aavesham filmmaker Jithu Madhavan which is currently filming, speculations are rife that he might reunite with his Jai Bhim director TJ Gnanavel for an upcoming film.
The news is yet to be confirmed by the makers. However, reports are also emerging about the yet-to-be-titled film going on floors in September with the actor's Zhagaram Studios expected to back the project. The recently-launched production house's first project is Suriya 47.
TJ Gnanavel's Jai Bhim, starred Suriya as a lawyer. Released in 2021, the legal drama also starred Lijomol Jose and Manikandan with Rajisha Vijayan, Prakash Raj, Guru Somasundaram, and Rao Ramesh in supporting roles. It was based on the real-life 1993 Cuddalore incident that involves a legal case fought by K Chandru. The film released directly on Prime Video to overwhelmingly positive reviews from audiences. Suriya-Jyotika's 2D Entertainment had produced the film.
The director last helmed Vettaiyan in 2024 with Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles.
