Actor Disha Patani to star with Suriya in his 42nd film. See details

Media reports have confirmed that actor Disha Patni will feature alongside Suriya in the superstar's 42nd movie. The Kannada actor shared a teaser for the untitled film, showing that the movie will be a period epic. The first look also indicates that the movie, directed by Siva, will be a VFX-heavy movie, much like the recent South Indian blockbusters like Baahubali, KGF, RRR and Vikram.

The teaser shows an eagle flying over a battlefield before settling down on Suriya's character. The character seems to be standing at the top of a hill, surveilling the war zone from above. The teaser also shows warriors in a battle riding on horses and elephants, using vintage weapons like swords, spears, axes, bows and more. Suriya shared the teaser on Twitter, seeking good wishes from his fans.

The film was announced in August when Suriya informed his fans that shooting for his 42nd project had begun. The music, which sounds epic in the teasers, is composed by Devi Sri Prasad, while the movie is jointly produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja and Suriya's production house, 2D Entertainment. Director Siva has also co-written the script for the film along with Aadhi Narayana.





After she posted the first-look teaser of the movie on her Instagram, fans went all gaga and congratulated the actor for her "well-deserved" new project. Many fans welcomed her to Kollywood and claimed that Disha would rock in the movie alongside Suriya.

The video on her timeline has received over 354,000 likes, with thousands of fans excited about the movie in the comments. Besides Suriya and Disha Patni, the upcoming film will feature comedian and actor Yogi Babu.

Suriya is one of the biggest actors in the Kannada film industry. The superstar is also one of the 397 eminent Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences members for the Oscars 2023. The actor's recent movie, Jai Bhim, became one of the most significant critical successes of last year.
