Suriya Unleashes Power in Karuppu: A Folk-Inspired Action Adventure with a Twist
Suriya’s 45th film is all set to make waves with a powerful title and an intriguing theme. Directed by RJ Balaji, the film has been officially named Karuppu, inspired by the revered South Indian folk deity Karuppusamy, also known as the “Black God.” The title was unveiled on RJ Balaji’s birthday, adding a celebratory touch to the announcement.
The title reveal poster has already sparked excitement among fans. It features Suriya in a fierce silhouette, gripping a sword, with the deity Karuppusamy looming in the background. Though Suriya’s face remains hidden, the poster radiates intensity and mystique—hinting at a powerful and culturally rich narrative.
Karuppu stars Trisha Krishnan as the female lead, reuniting with Suriya on screen after nearly two decades. Their last collaboration was the 2005 action drama Aaru. This reunion is generating buzz among fans of both stars. The film is being produced by SR Prabhu and SR Prakash Babu under Dream Warrior Pictures, the same banner that backed Suriya’s NGK.
