The recent development of the SuriyaLingusamy  project is that Swedish – Iranian actress Maryam Zakaria was roped in by the team. The actress has recently shot the introduction song along with Suriya and Vidyut Jamwal in Mumbai. The actress says that she was lucky to dance with Suriya and she would be mighty happy if she gets to act with him.

Maryam says, “The first special appearance I did was for a Tamil film, Nagaram. When I was approached to do a song with Suriya for Lingusamy's film, I happily agreed as I know the respect and popularity the two enjoy in the south. Suriya was very sweet with everyone on the set and it didn't feel like work at all. Vidyut was also part of the song. I'd earlier worked with Prabhu Dheva, and I'm happy I got to work with his brother Raju Sundaram in this song."
