Actor Suriya posted a photo on his official Instagram of himself with the Legendary former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar today (16-02-2023). Over the past few months, the actor has visited Mumbai frequently regarding his next movie with Annaathe director Siruthai Siva. Suriya and Sachin Tendulkar are said to have met casually in Mumbai. In the caption of the post, Suriya expresses his feelings about the meeting, saying, "Respect & Love!! @sachintendulkar."

Suriya's photo with Sachin has come as a huge surprise for fans, which has since taken social media by storm. Sachin is still hugely respected and celebrated throughout India, even after retiring about ten years ago. A. R. Rahman previously visited Sachin at home and posted a picture to Instagram that instantly went viral. Sachin delightfully retweeted the image and referred to AR Rahman as "Isaipuyal" in Tamil.

Suriya's latest appearance has yet again revealed his look for his upcoming film, the tentatively titled Suriya 42. The title of the movie has yet to be revealed. Suriya associates with Siruthai Siva for the first time in this film. Disha Patani will be playing the female lead in this film. A large percentage of the next movie's production has already been finished under the joint production of the Studio Green and UV Creations banners of K. E. Gnanavelraja and Vamsi-Pramod. Devi Sri Prasad is the movie's music director, and Suriya's fans will be expecting him to deliver a strong performance after he produced hits in Mayavi, Aaru, Singam, and Singam 2. Fans' curiosity had been sparked by the Suriya 42 motion poster, which hinted at the film's massive scope. Following the completion of Suriya 42, he will begin his work on director Vetri Maaran's Vaadi Vaasal. He'll also appear in a cameo in the Hindi version of Soorarai Pottru, starring Akshay Kumar.
