Suriya's gangster drama #Suriya44 directed by Karthik Subbaraj has officially unveiled its title, Retro, through an intriguing teaser released on Christmas Day.
The film promises a gripping mix of intense action, romance, and an emotional storyline, with Pooja Hegde playing the female lead.
The teaser opens with Suriya and Pooja Hegde sitting together on the ghats of Kashi, where Suriya's character makes a heartfelt promise to leave behind his violent past, vowing not to follow in his father's footsteps and abandon the world of rowdyism. In a pivotal moment, he proposes to Pooja, and she agrees without hesitation.
Throughout the teaser, we see Suriya and Pooja in various looks, spanning different time periods, adding layers of intrigue to their relationship.
The teaser also provides glimpses into the protagonist’s violent past, hinting at the complex history of his father and other characters tied to them.
In the final moments of the teaser, Suriya's character is presented in a raw, intense avatar: sitting casually, drinking, and smoking.
While the Retro title seems to allude to a significant narrative theme, the teaser successfully highlights the contrasting facets of the protagonist- both his ferocious gangster side and his softer, romantic side.
Directed by Karthik Subbaraj, the film appears to strike a perfect balance of action and love, offering a compelling commercial entertainer.
The cinematography by Shreyaas Krishna stands out for its visual grandeur, while Santosh Narayanan’s music elevates both the action and romantic moments.
Produced by Suriya’s 2D Entertainment, Retro is set to captivate audiences with its thrilling storyline, powerful performances, and dynamic visuals.
