"HEAVILY FICTIONALISED" - REAL MAARA REVIEWS SURIYA'S SOORARAI POTTRU; HERE'S HOW THE ACTOR REACTED!

The film is inspired by former army captain and Air Deccan founder GR Gopinath’s book Simply Fly and his life. The film also featured Aparna Balamurali, Dr.M Mohan Babu, Paresh Rawal, Urvashi, Karunas, Vivek Prasanna, Krishna Kumar and Kaali Venkat.

The movie has music by GVP and cinematography by Niketh Bommi. The celebrities could not stop themselves from expressing their excitement over this movie. Now, the real Maara has reviewed this “Soorarai Pottru ..Heavily fictionalised but outstanding in capturing the true essence of the story of my book. A real roller coaster. Yes, watched it last night. Couldn’t help laughing and crying on many family scenes that brought memories. Dramatised but true to the undying spirit of triumph of hope against struggles and tribulations of an entrepreneur with disadvantaged rural background over overwhelming odds. The portrayal of my wife Bhargavi by Aparna was very well etched out , of a woman who had her own mind , strong but soft , feisty and fearless and an inspiration to rural women especially who are equal and can be entrepreneurs in their own right. And, Suriya was powerful and carried off the part of an entrepreneur obsessed to the point of madness that makes dreams come true. A timely and great uplifting story in these times of gloom. And kudos and big salute to Director Sudha, to have balanced very deftly a male centric story lead by Suriya by portraying a wife acted by Aparna who was a powerful counter balance in an inspiring and heart-warming way."

To this Suriya has replied now, “Dearest Captain! So happy and excited you liked it!!! Our small way of paying respect to what you believed in and what you did for our county! Hoping many more will be inspired!”
