Suriya confirms film with Lokesh Kanagaraj on Rolex from LCU

Kollywood Star Suriya, who made his fans elated with his pan India film, Kanguva’s glimpse, had recently met his fans during a meet. He confirmed exciting news in the fans meet that Lokesh and him will be collaborating on a film which is part of LCU the film, and it is a full-length movie which will be based on Rolex character which was introduced in Vikram. Suriya said that Lokesh Kanagaraj has already narrated the full script of the film.

In 2022, Suriya was officially included in the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU), which was created by director writer Lokesh Kanagaraj. Suriya was pursued by Kamal Haasan’s titular character, who appeared as one of the antagonists in Vikram’s climax. In the middle of ongoing discussion about the LCU and its future, Suriya has indicated a significant development is on the horizon.

The LCU is ever-expanding. Director Lokesh Kanagaraj started off the LCU with Kaithi in 2019. The film had featured Arjun Das and Karthi, after which the director released Vikram (2022) with Kamal Haasan which became a massive blockbuster at the box office. After its success, the director is now gearing up for Leo (October 2023) with Thalapathy Vijay.

There are reports that Leo will also be a part of the LCU but there was no official confirmation on the same by the film’s team. Vikram’s final scene featured characters played by Kamal Haasan and Suriya, leaving the fans in the anticipation of a terrific face off between them.

Many speculated that the next LCU film would concentrate more on Rolex, but surprisingly Lokesh teamed up with Thalapathy Vijay. However, now the latest hint from Suriya suggests that his character, Rolex, will be the only focus of the next film of Lokesh following Leo.
