After the first shows, the Vignesh Shivn directorial is getting highly positive response from the commoners as well as the critcs. The movie has already earned a ‘sure shot hit‘ tag thanks to the festive release and the positive word of mouth.

Meanwhile, Suriya is joining hands with Selvaraghavan for his next after TSK. After that he will be reuniting with his Ayan and Maattraan director KV Anand for what will be his 37th film. The actor confirmed this in a recent promotional event of TSK held in Hyderabad.

KV Anand is known for helming quality commercial entertainers that also carry a relevant social message in it. His upcoming movie with Suriya is also expected to be on similar lines. The director had recently travelled to China for location scouting.

The latest buzz in Kollywood is that KV Anand is trying to get Amitabh Bachchan to play a prominent role in Suriya 37. Reports reveal that the team is putting in their best of efforts to reach out to Bachchan for a narration and soon there might be a confirmation around it. Interestingly, KV Anand has earlier worked with the superstar in the 2004 cop-action flick Khakee, for which he cranked the camera.

Amitabh Bachchan is already part of a South Indian film – Telugu cinema’s megastar Chiranjeevi’s period film ‘Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy’. Speculations are also rife about the makers of Mohanlal’s ‘Odiyan’ trying to rope in Bachchan for a brief cameo; a confirmation regarding which has not yet been made.

It will be huge if KV Anand and his team can convince Amitabh Bachchan and get him on board. If that happens, Suriya 37 will be one of the most anticipated projects of 2018 and the audience will definitely be in for a treat. Let’s wait for an official word.
