Suriya to play superhero in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s film

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj’s second film, Kaithi, is having a dream run of sorts at the box office garnering huge appreciation from all quarters. In one of the recent media interactions, Karthi, the protagonist of the film, revealed that his brother Suriya will also do a film with Lokesh Kanagaraj and talks are already on.

While this news had created expectations among Suriya fans, we hear from realible sources that the title of the film had also been finalised. The filmmaker had apparently registered Irumbhu Kai Maayavi as the film’s title and he is planning to begin the shoot once Suriya completes the post production work of Sudha Kongara’s Soorarai Pottru.


A source close to the film’s unit reveals us that the film will be an interesting fantasy entertainer. “Suriya’s character in the film will be something on the lines of comic superhero Steel Claw. An official announcement will be made once Lokesh completes his third film. Other cast and crew are yet to be finalised.”


Lokesh Kanagaraj is currently working on Thalapathy 64, which also has Vijay Sethupathi playing the role of the antagonist. The team is shooting high-octane stunt sequences in Delhi and the pictures from the sets have been doing the rounds on social media.
