Soorarai Pottru, starring actor Suriya Sivakumar has dropped on Amazon Prime Videos, directed by Sudha Kongara. The ensemble cast of the film stars, Aparna Balamurali, Mohan Babu, Paresh Rawal.
What is the film about?
The story is based on the best-selling book Simply Fly, which discusses the life and struggles of Captain Gopinath. Despite being adapted from a book, the film portrays several incidents from the book. Still, it is not a biopic of Captain. The makers have taken numerous cinematic liberties to help elevate the level of interest among the viewers.
Storyline
The film revolves around Nedumaaran Rajangam (Suriya), the son of a school teacher (Poo Ramu) in a Madurai village, who decides to start a low-cost airline that can be aspirational for even the less privileged. But Paresh Goswami (Paresh Rawal), a leader in the aviation industry, tries his best to ensure that this dream doesn't take off.
Fans and critics have lauded Suriya's film Soorarai Pottru and his impeccable performance in the movie.
