Kanguva (transl. Man with the power of Fire)[2], also known and marketed as Kanguva: A Mighty Valiant Saga, is an upcoming Indian Tamil-language period action drama film[a] directed by Siva and written by Adi Narayana. It stars Suriya, leading an ensemble cast that includes Disha Patani (in her Tamil debut), Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala, Anandaraj, Ravi Raghavendra, K. S. Ravikumar and B. S. Avinash. The film is produced by K. E. Gnanavel Raja, V. Vamsi Krishna Reddy and Pramod Uppalapati under the banners of Studio Green and UV Creations.

The project was announced in April 2019 under the working title Suriya 39, marking the actor's 39th film as a lead. Filming was scheduled to start after Suriya had wrapped up Soorarai Pottru (2020). However, it was delayed after Siva got to direct Annaatthe (2021). Shooting was later postponed, and eventually the project was shelved. Then in January 2022, Suriya revealed that the film was still on. It was announced in August that year with the tentative title Suriya 42. Principal photography commenced that month and took place in various locations of Goa, Chennai, Kerala and Kodaikanal. It is expected to be completed in May. The title Kanguva was announced in April 2023. The technical crew includes Devi Sri Prasad, Vetri Palanisamy and Nishadh Yusuf as musician, cinematographer and editor respectively. Made on a budget of 350 crore (US$44 million), Kanguva is the fifth most expensive Indian film to date.

Kanguva is scheduled to be released theatrically in early 2024 in 2D as well as 3D formats.

Development

Two months after the release of Siva's Viswasam (2019), reports claimed that Suriya would collaborate with the former for a film to be produced by K. E. Gnanavel Raja of Studio Green.[8][9] The project was in talks for quite a few months and Siva had committed to do a film with Studio Green for more than a year.[10] On 22 April 2019, the film was announced under the tentative title Suriya 39, being the 39th film of Suriya in a leading role. The project was confirmed to be bankrolled by K. E. Gnanavel Raja under the banner of Studio Green and was supposed to go on floors after Suriya had completed filming for Soorarai Pottru (2020).[11] During May, Nayanthara was in talks to be paired opposite Suriya. According to sources, the film would be a family drama set in a village, similar to Siva’s Viswasam.[12][13]

However, before shooting could begin, Siva had gotten a chance to direct Rajinikanth’s 168th film, later titled Annaatthe (2021). Rajinikanth asked Suriya if he could postpone his film with Siva to which the latter agreed.[14] The filming date was later pushed to November 2021 as Siva was busy with promotions of his film with Rajinikanth. During that September, sets had been erected in a film studio in Chennai.[15] Then onwards, there was no development and Suriya 39 would later become Jai Bhim (2021).[16][17]

Pre-production

Kanguva is the maiden collaboration of Suriya with Siva.

In an interview with Variety in January 2022, Suriya stated that his upcoming film with Siva was still on.[18][19] That March, one of Anirudh Ravichander or Ravi Basrur was reported to be replacing D. Imman, who was announced as the project’s music director.[20] However, the makers roped in Devi Sri Prasad.[21] In an interview with IndiaGlitz in July 2022, producer Gnanavel Raja said that he would not be producing the film due to it being the most expensive film in Suriya's career. He further added that UV Creations had taken up the project.[22]

The film was launched on 21 August in Agaram Foundation, Chennai with a customary pooja ceremony and was tentatively titled Suriya 42, as it is Suriya's 42nd film in a leading role.[23] On 24 August, Studio Green and UV Creations announced that they would jointly produce the film.[24] Vetri and Richard Kevin were recruited to handle cinematography and editing respectively. Supreme Sundar was reported to have been roped in as action choreographer.[23] The film's motion poster was released on 9 September and revealed that it was a period action film, which would be released in 3D. Also, Nishad Yusuf replaced Kevin as editor.[25] On 16 April 2023, the title was announced as Kanguva through a title announcement teaser.[3] In an interview to Kumudam in late April, G. Dhananjayan, who is in constant communication with the film's producers, said that the film could have a sequel. He said that the film's story is quite extensive, and the producers were unwilling to shorten it. Both Siva and Gnanavel Raja have been planning to create a sequel and Suriya has already agreed to it. He further added that the decision to make a sequel will be made after filming ends.[26][27]

Casting

Disha Patani was cast as the lead actress, in her Tamil film debut.

Suriya will be seen in 13 different looks in the film. Earlier in Ayan (2009), he was seen in ten different looks and that record will be broken through this film.[28] In early July 2022, Pooja Hegde was rumoured to have been cast as the female lead.[29][30] It turned out to be false and Disha Patani was reportedly paired opposite Suriya, marking her Tamil debut.[21] Patani's inclusion was confirmed officially on 9 September.[31] Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala and Anandaraj were reportedly cast in late-August to play supporting roles.[32] That September, Ravi Raghavendra revealed his participation in the film,[33] while K. S. Ravikumar was reported being part of the cast in October, after he had shot for his portions in the second schedule of the film.[34][35] B. S. Avinash, of K.G.F fame, was cast in late April 2023.[36]

Filming

Part of the film was shot in Goa.

Filming was intended to begin in November 2021 after Siva's commitments in Annaatthe. Later, it was pushed to July 2022 after Suriya had completed the shooting schedule of Bala's Vanangaan in June and test shoot of Vetrimaaran's Vaadivaasal in July.[37] But that too didn't happen. The film's principal photography ultimately began with the first schedule on 24 August 2022 in Chennai with a customary pooja ceremony.[38][39] The first schedule was concluded in five days there.[40]

The second schedule commenced in Goa on 20 September.[33] Patani joined the sets the very next day.[41] A massive set was erected in the outskirts where most portions had been shot. A stunt sequence involving more than 250 extras was also shot there.[42] During this schedule, pictures and footage from the sets were leaked and went viral, causing the studio, Studio Green, to warn of legal action against the ones responsible.[43][44] The second schedule was completed on 11 October and the team took a break for a couple of weeks on the account of Diwali.[45][46] The next and third schedule was reported to commence again in Chennai and also in Pondicherry post-Diwali,[47] while the subsequent schedule would be shot in Sri Lanka for 60 days.[48] Since the film is reportedly set in two timelines and has a 1000-year old backstory, most parts filmed during the second schedule in Goa makes up the present day portions while the ones in the coming Sri Lanka schedule would make up the period ones.[49][50]

For the next schedule, Suriya trained hard to sport a six pack look.[51][52] The third schedule began on 16 December in Ennore, Chennai as reported,[53] with Patani and Yogi Babu being included in this schedule.[54][55] Few days later, the team started shooting action sequences at a grand set erected at Ennore Port, which were choregraphed by Supreme Sundar, who was roped in during this schedule.[56][57] It was a short schedule which was completed by late-December.[28] By January 2023, 60% of shooting was completed. Filming resumed on 4 January 2023 at EVP Film City in Chennai.[58][59] It was completed by January end.[60] In early February, the makers erected a set resembling an aeroplane for shooting action sequences.[61] Few days before that, an action sequence with around 50 extras clashing with Suriya was filmed in a gym.[62]

On 10 February, the next schedule commenced yet again in Chennai. The team had started shooting action sequences from that day onwards.[63] Cinematographer Vetri brought Alexa Super 35 and Alexa LF camera versions for a better output of the action sequences. Kanguva is the second Tamil film to use the Alexa Super 35 camera after Leo (2023).[64] In early March, Suriya was spotted hitting a gym, preparing for a massive action scene along with 200 bodybuilders.[65] Few days later, Siva took a short break from filming after his brother Bala had been hospitalized due to liver disease.[66][67] After the completion of this schedule, Siva and Suriya started filming the title teaser.[68] It was completed on 12 March.[69] After a 10-day break,[70] shooting took place for one day in Kerala on 19 April.[71] The next day, a new phase started in Kodaikanal at the forest areas.[72] It was supposed to go on for about 20 days, but the team finished the schedule on 7 May.[36][73] Filming is expected to be wrapped up in May.[74]

Post-production

Post-production is scheduled to begin in June 2023.[74] It will go on for several months as the film involves extensive visual effects, which had been progressing simultaneously.[70] Harihara Suthan will serve as the visual effects supervisor.[75]

Music

The music and background score is composed by Devi Sri Prasad, in his fifth collaboration with Suriya after Maayavi (2005), Aaru (2005), Singam (2010) and Singam II (2013) and second with Siva after Veeram (2014).[76] The film's music rights were purchased by Saregama.[77]

Kanguva is scheduled to be released in early 2024 in 2D and 3D formats.[78] Including Tamil, the film will be released in 10 languages.[79][80]

Pre-release business

Kanguva had made a total pre-release recovery of more than 500 crore (US$63 million), becoming the first Tamil film to do so beating Leo (2023), which made more than 400 crore (US$50 million).[82] The South Indian digital rights of the film were sold for 80 crore (US$10 million).[83] The Hindi satellite, digital and theatrical rights for the film were sold to Pen Studios for ₹100 crore.[84]
