Tamil cinema lovers have a reason to rejoice, as Suriya’s next film Retro is ready for an elaborate release on May 1. Be directed by the renowned Karthik Subbaraj, the movie promises to be a stylish entertainer that will have the right amount of action coupled with romance. The trailer and other promotional materials have already generated a huge buzz, leaving big hopes among cinema enthusiasts.
In a twist of events, director Karthik Subbaraj recently revealed that Retro was not written keeping Suriya in mind initially. The script was actually first written as a full-blown action film for none other than Superstar Rajinikanth. However, after telling the script to Suriya, Karthik felt that Suriya’s energy fit the tone of another kind—hence, the story had to be retweaked into a romantic-action drama.
Suriya, who was delighted with this news, is said to have inquired of the director whether or not the script ever made it to Rajinikanth, who was originally intended for the film. Now, thanks to Suriya sporting a dashing new look and a commanding on-screen presence, Retro is creating good vibes all around.
The movie stars Pooja Hegde as the heroine, bringing glamour and beauty to the story. Santhosh Narayanan is the composer of music, whose work is guaranteed to heighten both action and emotional scenes in the movie.
From its interesting background, new narrative twist, and excellent cast and crew, Retro is sure one of the most awaited summer movies from Tamil.
