The video has once again created a buzz online and it is being widely circulated. Speculation is rife that Suriya42 is inspired by a novel titled Veerayuga Nayagan Velpari, written by none other than MP Su Venkatesan. Suriya had earlier given a cue on the subject at the event as shown in the short clip.
According to the official website of Velpari, this Venkatesan creation narrates the story of a legendary Tamil king ruling over an extensive historical region.
Films based on novels are slowly becoming the norm in the Tamil film industry. Director Vethimaran’s Asuran starring Dhanush was also based on a novel. Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan: 1 is also inspired by writer Kalki Krishnamurthy’s classic novel of the same name.
Helmed by Annaatthe director Siruthai Siva, Suriya 42, is exclusively produced by UV Creations and Studio Green. The film stars Bollywood actress Disha Patani as the female lead opposite Suriya. Other actors associated with the film include Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala, and Yogi Babu.
The period action drama that began shooting on August 8 will be released in 10 languages and that too in 3D.
