Tamil actor Soori's next big film's title has been revealed to be Garudan in an action-packed glimpse and has been directed by R. S. Durai Senthilkumar based on a story written by National Award-winning filmmaker Vetri Maaran. The upcoming film also stars Saskumar and Malayalam actor Unni Mukundan, who is returning to Tamil cinema after his appearance in Dhanush's Seedan (2011), while Revathi Sharma of August 16 1947 (2023) and Sshivada of Theera Kaadhal (2023) fame will be seen in key roles, with Roshini Haripriyan, Samuthrakani, Mime Gopi, R. V. Udayakumar, Vadivukarasi, Dushyanth, 'Motta' Rajendran, and Brigida forming the rest of the supporting cast.
With production on Garudan wrapped already and post-production works currently underway, an intriguing glimpse has now been released on Friday, January 19, showing what audiences can expect to witness once the film is out in theatres. The teaser showcases Soori in the lead role as a henchman, while Sasikumar and Unni Mukundan appear to be influential and powerful people. The Garudan glimpse also features music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, who is composing the songs and the background score of the film, which is expected to come out in theatres this year.
Garudan is the second time Soori has collaborated with Vetri Maaran after Viduthalai: Part 1 (2023), which went on to become a major box office success, while garnering critical acclaim last year. The period crime thriller also showcased Soori in his hero debut, with audiences and critics showering praises for his nuanced performance, and the wait is now on for the film's sequel, Viduthalai: Part 2, which has been announced to premiere at the 53rd International Film Festival Rotterdam under the limelight category scheduled to take place between January 25 to February 4. It is be noted that Soori is also awaiting the release of Kottukkaali alongside Malayalam actress Anna Ben under Koozhangal (2021) fame P. S. Vinothraj's direction.
