Tamil star Suriya is one of the most loved actors in South India. Bu the issue with him has been the tendency to make mediocre and bad films, thus losing a big chunk of his market. He had his two brightest films Aakashame Haddura and Jai Bhim in OTT while the lackluster Kanguva was released in theaters.
Coming to the topic now, the debacle of Kanguva has shut many doors for Suriya now and the same is to be understood if we look at the latest developments.
As per reports, Suriya’s big-budget film Karna which was earlier proposed with Rakeysh Omprakash and a Bollywood production house backing it, has now been shelved. This film was earlier supposed to be made on a budget of Rs 300+ crores and it was said that Janhvi Kapoor was also onboard for the same.
However, with the failure of Kanguva resulting in several crores deficit and the film not even able to touch Rs 100 crores gross, it has meant that the big budget films of Suriya are now on hold. As a result, Karna which was earlier proposed might also be in the backburner henceforth.
Suriya needs to establish his market in a solid manner now if he is to even look at the big ticket films. Things are not going well for him at the moment and there is the serious need to reconsider his choices. It has to be seen how he would come out of this slump.
