Karuppu teaser review

The 1-minute 42-second video opens with the proclamation that Suriya’s character, Saravanan, is like a fierce demigod who delivers justice instantly. 

As the teaser progresses, audiences get a peek of the actor pulling off dual shades in a single role, one where he’s the powerful lawyer and the other where he’s the unforgiving model of delivering instant justice.

The other highlights of the teaser certainly include some massy punchlines by Suriya, along with his rowdy look around which the role has been characterised. 

Most importantly, debutant composer Sai Abhyankkar’s background score keeps the thrilling aspect intact throughout the teaser.


More about Karuppu

The title 'Karuppu' literally translates to 'black' in English. The movie will retain the same name across its Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi versions at the time of its release.

Suriya’s work front

Well, Suriya was last seen on-screen with Karthik Subbaraj’s Retro this year, which was a mediocre hit at the box office.

Moving on, besides Karuppu in the pipeline, the actor also has Suriya 46 with Venky Atluri on the cards. It stars Mamitha Baiju as the leading lady opposite him.
