More about Karuppu
Karuppu revolves around underprivileged people fighting for their rights while placing their faith in the legal system.

The film explores how he carries out his mission and protects those in need.
Apart from Suriya and Trisha Krishnan, the movie also stars RJ Balaji, Indrans, Natty Subramaniam, Swasika, Sshivada, Anagha Maaya Ravi, and Supreeth Reddy in key roles.
