Suriya was last seen in director Sudha Kongara Prasad's Soorarai Pottru, which released directly on Amazon Prime Video skipping theatrical release. He recently wrapped up the shoot of his upcoming short film with director Gautham Menon for Mani Ratnam and Jayendra Panchapakesan's anthology, Navarasa, which will release on Netflix. Now, Suriya is gearing up for the shooting of his upcoming film with director Pandiraj.
