Official: Vetrimaaran to direct Suriya 40

As speculated earlier, Suriya is all set to team up with award-winning filmmaker Vetrimaaran. The official announcement was made last day producer Kalaippuli S Thanu of V Creations. Thanu was also the producer of Vetrimaaran’s recently released blockbuster film ‘Asuran’. Announcing the project, he tweeted,

After the tremendous success of Asuran, director @VetriMaaran will be teaming up with @Suriya_offl
for the first time in #Suriya40
@theVcreations is happy and proud to produce this film.
– S.Thanu

Suriya and Vetrimaaran are collaborating for the first time and needless to say, expectations will be sky-high. The star has been through a rough patch over the last few years as he is trying hard to find a balance between content oriented films and mass masala entertainers. Vetrimaran’s film might be the much needed comeback film for him.

Suriya’s next release will be ‘Soorarai Pottru’ directed by Sudha Kongara. He has also committed for projects with directors Siva and Hari.
