Hindi remake of Suriya starrer Soorarai Pottru on the cards

Tamil film Soorarai Pottru starring Suriya got a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video in November last year. The movie received a great response and was also made available for screening at the 93rd Academy Awards, however, it was not nominated.

Now, a Hindi remake of the film has been announced. Suriya took to Twitter to make an announcement about it.


He tweeted, “Excited to announce our  association with @Abundantia_Ent lead by @vikramix for #SooraraiPottru in Hindi, Directed by #SudhaKongara @CaptGopinath #Jyotika @rajsekarpandian @ShikhaaSharma03 @2D_ENTPVTLTD.”

The Hindi remake of the film will be directed by Sudha Kongara who had helmed the Tamil film as well. While the movie has been officially announced, the makers have not yet revealed which actor will be stepping into Suriya’s shoes for it.

However, according to a report in Times of India, Ajay Devgn, Hrithik Roshan, John Abraham and Akshay Kumar are being considered for the film. Well, let’s wait and watch which actor will be finalised for the Soorarai Pottru Hindi remake.

The Tamil film also featured Paresh Rawal and Aparna Balamurali in pivotal roles. The movie was partly inspired by the life of Simplifly Deccan founder G. R. Gopinath.

Talking about Suriya’s upcoming projects, the actor will be seen in Netflix’s anthology Navarasa. It will start streaming on 6th August 2021.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
