Tamil actor Suriya celebrated his 50th birthday on Wednesday, and to mark the occasion, the makers of Karuppu released the teaser of the much-anticipated film — Suriya’s 45th. Directed by RJ Balaji, the film is touted to be a full-blown commercial entertainer mounted on an ambitious scale.
The first-look teaser, unveiled on his birthday, is a visual treat. Suriya appears in a commanding, larger-than-life avatar, brimming with intensity, grit, and an electrifying screen presence. Packed with fiery visuals and whistle-worthy moments, the teaser promises a high-octane cinematic ride with massive appeal.

RJ Balaji, known for his socially rooted storytelling, makes a bold shift to commercial cinema with Karuppu. With Suriya leading the charge, the duo seems set to create a compelling entertainer that connects with audiences across the board. Music is composed by Sai Abhyankkar, who has quickly carved a niche for himself, and this film marks a significant milestone in his fast-rising career.
Trisha Krishnan plays the female lead, though the teaser keeps her look under wraps — saving it for the theatrical trailer.
