“Karuppu” keeps pulling audiences. The Tamil film is still running strong in theatres and has turned into one of the year’s biggest talking points.
On 24 May 2026 the star attended a press‑and‑fan meet in Chennai. He looked emotional – and grateful – as he tried to thank everyone who helped the movie hit the 200 crore mark.
During the talk Suriya praised director RJ Balaji. He said he believed in Balaji’s vision right from the first meeting. “Everything went well from the first meeting itself. It was completely RJ Balaji’s vision,” he said.
The actor also tipped his hat to producers Prakash and Prabhu of Dream Warrior Pictures for backing the project and making the right calls.
He noted the response wasn’t just limited to Tamil Nadu. Audiences in Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Ireland, Australia, the UK, the US and Dubai are also cheering, he added.
When asked about a possible “Karuppu” sequel, the crowd erupted. Suriya smiled, chuckled and replied, “Let’s see, sir,” without confirming anything.
He talked about the effort behind the climax and songs. One key song, he revealed, was finished nearly five months after the final edit because the team felt it was essential for the emotional climax.
Fans also buzzed about his look. He arrived in a black shirt, dark denim jeans and a neatly trimmed beard – a style that quickly trended on social media.
Wrapping up, Suriya thanked the entire cast and crew, saying real happiness comes from making people happy and seeing audiences celebrate together inside theatres.
The event’s videos and pictures are already flooding the internet, keeping “Karuppu” in the spotlight.
