Suriya 44 now titled Retro; Karthik Subbaraj directorial promises love, laughter, and war featuring Suriya and Pooja Hegde
Suriya’s next film, directed by Karthik Subbaraj, has finally locked in its title as Retro. Check out the intriguing first look.
Suriya is all prepped to be back on the silver screen again after his last release, Kanguva. This time he is collaborating with filmmaker Karthik Subbaraj in an intriguing project that is now titled Retro. The makers recently made the title announcement and dropped the first look, creating buzz already.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Karthik Subbaraj unveiled the final title of Suriya44, which is now Retro. The filmmaker also dropped the first glimpse of the film, featuring Suriya in a completely new look, essaying the role of a man with severe temper issues.
However, he is willing to give it up at all costs, just to be with the love of his life, played by Pooja Hegde.

Along with the post on social media, the filmmaker aptly summed up the movie with emotions of love, laughter and war.
Besides the curious teaser, which seems to have left many unanswered questions, it is also the slightly retro looks pulled off by both Suriya and Pooja Hegde that have grabbed attention.
While the Kanguva star flaunted an old-world-styled moustache along with a lamb chop hairdo, Pooja, on the other hand, revisited the style of fuller, rounded eyebrows and minimal makeup.
For the unversed, the Tamil-language romantic action film is also co-produced by Suriya himself, along with his wife, Jyotika. The project was first announced in March 2023 and it is only now that the final title of the film has been unveiled.
Talking about the cast, besides Suriya and Pooja Hegde, it includes Jayaram, Joju George, Prakash Raj, Nassar, Prem Kumar, and others. Shriya Saran is also speculated to be a part of the film, where she will be doing a special cameo in one of the songs.
If reports are to be believed, Retro is set in the backdrop of the 1980s and can be partially touted as a gangster action drama. However, later the director Karthik Subbaraj himself clarified that the film would be essentially a romantic one, with tenets of high-voltage drama included.
On the work front, Suriya also has another project queued up, titled Suriya 45, directed by RJ Balaji.
