Tamil superstar Suriya's upcoming movie Kanguva is gearing up for release soon, and the producers are keeping the anticipation alive by unveiling a series of compelling teaser trailers. On Saturday, they announced that a new theatrical trailer will be released on August 12.

Kanguva is the most ambitious and costly film in Suriya's career. According to the producers, the film has cost three times more than the biggest hit in Suriya's filmography. The filmmakers believe the time is right for Suriya's career to reach the next level.

With Kanguva, the producers are aiming to expand the movie's reach beyond Tamil cinema's traditional markets domestically. Since the 2017 global hit Baahubali 2, "pan-India" films have become all the rage, yet the Tamil film industry has struggled to deliver a movie that appeals to cinema-goers across the country. The producers are confident that Kanguva will fill that critical gap and captivate audiences across language and cultural barriers.

Written and directed by Siva, Kanguva is a fantasy drama mounted on a massive scale. The filmmakers have reportedly spent a fortune perfecting the visual effects, which are expected to push the limits of VFX in Tamil cinema. The teasers so far promise a highly immersive, larger-than-life cinematic experience.

In Kanguva, Suriya plays a double role, with the narrative travelling back and forth in time. The highlight of the movie is Suriya's look and performance as a tribal warlord, with an unquenchable thirst for war and bloodshed.

Kanguva also stars Bobby Deol as the main antagonist, with Disha Patani playing a key role.
