Hombale Films unveiled the collaboration through a special social media announcement celebrating Suriya’s remarkable journey in cinema.
The production house wrote, “He built it. Frame by frame. Film by film. Fight by fight. Roles that bled truth. Characters that carried the weight of real lives. A journey defined by courage, conviction, and craft. Three decades of truth on screen. Countless hearts touched beyond it. Now, the most fearless actor of his generation steps onto his grandest stage yet. Hombale Films proudly welcomes THE ONE & only, Suriya.”
The film was officially launched with a pooja ceremony in Chennai on June 29, 2026, attended by the cast and the core technical team.
The upcoming film will be directed by TJ Gnanavel and stars Dragon actress Kayadu Lohar as the female lead. Composer Sai Abhyankkar reunites with Suriya after Karuppu, while cinematographer SR Kathir and editor Philomin Raj have also come on board the project.
