Suriya 38: Suriya’s next with Sudha Kongara starts rolling
After the launch last day, Suriya’s new film (Suriya 38) with director Sudha Kongara has gone on floors today. Shoot has commenced in Chennai. The movie has Malayali actress Aparna Balamurali as the female lead. GV Prakash is the composer and Niketh Bommireddy is handling the cinematography.
‘Suriya 38’ is a very ambitious project. The makers have been involved with the pre-production works for over a year now. Reports suggest that the movie is a biopic on GR Gopinath, the founder of Air Deccan and a retired captain of the Indian army, but the makers are yet
to confirm this. It is scripted jointly by Shalini Usha Nair and Sudha Kongara. Vijay Kumar of ‘Uriyadi’ fame is said to have penned the dialogues.
Guneet Monga, who recently bagged the Oscar award for her critically acclaimed documentary production, ‘Period. End of Sentence’, is entering Kollywood with this movie. Guneet’s Sikhya Entertainment is producing the movie jointly with Suriya’s 2D Entertainment.
