Will 'Retro' change everything?

By OfficialNewsPublished 9 months ago 2 min read

Chennai: Ever since actor Suriya sold his film Soorarai Pottru to the Amazon Prime OTT platform, negativity against him has been spreading in Tamil cinema. Films like Ghajini, Ayan and Singam have all given Suriya huge success. He stormed the box office, crossing the 100 crore mark.

However, while Soorarai Pottru and Jaibhim were released directly on OTT citing the Corona pandemic, subsequent films produced by Sun Pictures, including Ikutukum Thundhavan and Ganguava, which were released as a Pan India film, failed miserably at the box office.

While Suriya's film Ganguava has been a flop, and there are many controversies surrounding Suriya, such as Jyothika's harsh criticism of other films, discussions are also spreading on social media that Suriya had lowered his tone too much without giving much of a build-up at the audio launch of the film Retro.

Jyothika Varala: Suriya had gone to Jyothika's Chaitan Hindi film promotion. But, fans raised the question of why Jyothika did not come to the promotion of Gangua and Retro. Karthi's daughter's presence at the Retro audio launch event with her grandfather Sivakumar attracted the attention of many. Questions have also arisen as to whether Jyothika did not come because Sivakumar was coming.

Lord Shiva Darshan in North Indian Temples: Surya and Jyothika visited famous temples in many cities like Narasimha Temple, Tirupati, Kerala, and Karnataka after the film Ganguly did not get the expected success and gave a big blow. In this situation, Surya and Jyothika visited temples including Kamagaya in North India before the release of the film Retro and performed worship. In this situation, many controversies and problems have once again arisen around Surya and Jyothika on social media.

Against Sri Lankan Tamils?: Karthik Subbaraj's Retro movie starring Suriya, Pooja Hegde, Joju George and others is set to hit the screens on May 1. A close source has informed that the rumours that some people have been spreading about the film's inappropriate dialogues against Sri Lankan Tamils ​​are just rumors and that there are no such controversial dialogues in the film.

Retro's success: The success of Retro is expected to be such that the negativity against Suriya will disappear from Tamil cinema. 20 million fans have supported the Retro trailer. Retro is also expected to change the situation where Pooja Hegde's films have been continuously failing. With Good Bad Ugly being a hit for Ajith, we can hope that Retro will give Suriya and Tamil cinema the next success.
