In recent conversations with the media, Suriya shared his deep admiration for legendary films that have defined the epic genre, including *Braveheart*, *The Lord of the Rings*, *Game of Thrones*, and *Apocalypto*. These cinematic masterpieces have captivated viewers worldwide with their storytelling, character arcs, and visual spectacle. Reflecting on this, Suriya remarked, "We have loved films like Braveheart, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones or Apocalypto. We have been mesmerised by them and watched them many times. The thought was, 'When are we going to do such films?'" This sentiment reveals not only his aspiration to contribute to the legacy of such impactful storytelling but also highlights a broader desire within the Tamil film industry to push creative boundaries and produce content that rivals international standards.
*Directed by the talented Siva*, *Kanguva* is described as a futuristic saga that immerses audiences in a narrative where people are faced with complex lives and intricate situations. Suriya praised Siva for his visionary approach, which is evident in the film's unique concept. He recalled Siva’s compelling idea: "What if we go back a few hundred years? What would happen if our people lived such a life and had a complex situation? Let's picture that, and that's how the whole thing came about." This imaginative premise suggests a blend of historical inspiration with a modern twist, potentially redefining the epic genre in Tamil cinema and engaging audiences on multiple levels.
Suriya also highlighted Siva’s expertise in utilizing cutting-edge green matte shots, indicating that visual storytelling will be a significant focus of *Kanguva*. He noted, "Siva is amazing with green matte shots. He's very talented at telling a story visually. He would love theatrical moments, so all of that put together is Kanguva." This attention to visual detail promises to create a richly immersive experience, drawing audiences deeper into the film's world and enhancing the emotional impact of the story.
The film features an impressive ensemble cast, including **Bobby Deol**, who takes on the role of the primary antagonist. Deol shared his excitement about collaborating with Suriya, stating, "I've been a big fan of Suriya. I never knew Siva so well, and when I met him, he promised me, 'Sir, when you come on the set, you'll be really happy.' I've never been so happy on a set." His praise for Siva, describing him as "like a teddy bear" and "really sweet," paints a picture of a collaborative and enjoyable working environment. Such dynamics often translate into stronger performances on screen, enhancing the film's overall quality. Deol further highlighted the film's unique narrative scope, noting, "You see a lot of historical films, but this takes you into a different world together. Making something like this is a big task," emphasizing the ambitious nature of the project and the high expectations it has generated.
In addition to Suriya and Deol, *Kanguva* boasts the talents of **Disha Patani**, who plays a significant role in the film.
