Suriya turns 45 as we speak. He made his performing debut in his early 20s with director Vasanth’s Nerrukku Ner. The 1997 household drama additionally starred Vijay, who had about 5 years head begin over Suriya within the business. And a few years later, Suriya went on to turned a star in his personal proper, starting with the success of director Bala’s Nandha (2001). In a profession spanning greater than twenty years, he has solely 38 movies to his credit score, together with but-to-be-launched Soorarai Pottru. While his contemporaries Vijay and Ajith is at 64 and 60, respectively, Dhanush, who made his performing debut with Thulluvadho Ilamai in 2002, has greater than 40 motion pictures to his credit score.
Suriya just isn’t churning out as many motion pictures as we want him to do. But, what he lacks in amount, he tries to make up in high quality. He is among the many few main stars of Tamil cinema, who aspire to push the envelope of mainstream cinema by taking dangers time and time once more. Not, that all of his dangers yield desired outcomes. Like NGK, a courageous try however a poor present.
There is a slim likelihood that 5 years down the road, NGK could discover its viewers and obtain the love that it didn’t obtain when it hit theaters. Years after individuals could write and debate time and again concerning the movie’s absurdity and at last make sense of director Selvaraghavan’s imaginative and prescient.
But, that is not going to occur with motion pictures through which Suriya had performed extraordinarily secure. Some of Suriya’s repeated collaborations with a number of the administrators in his filmography have turned out to be massive disappointments, regardless of their field workplace performances.
Here is a checklist of Suriya’s collaborations that labored the primary time however didn’t recreate the identical magic in repeated makes an attempt.
Ghajini – It labored.
7aum Arivu – Didn’t work
Back in 2005, Ghajini turned the most important hit of director AR Murugadoss’ profession. And it gave Suriya one among his most memorable performances. However, when the duo collaborated for the second time, the magic didn’t occur.
Singam – It labored
Singam 2, three – Didn’t work
Director Hari gave essentially the most influential cop character to Indian cinema with Singam in 2010. The movie resulted in a number of remakes and impressed Rohit Shetty to construct his personal “cop universe”, if you’ll. But, Hari’s concepts for Singam sequels turned stagnant.
Ayan – It labored
Maattrraan, Kaappaan – Didn’t work
Ayan is without doubt one of the most interesting industrial entertainers within the historical past of Tamil cinema. Director KV Anand introduced his A-sport to showcase the adventures of a globe-tottling smuggler. Suriya’s Deva was a whiff of recent air among the many crowd of morally upright heroes. Deva loved smuggling. He didn’t have a sob story like Velu Naicker or Baasha to justify his amorality. Simply put, the actor-director duo’s subsequent ventures Maattrraan and Kaappaan had been forgettable.
