Padagotti: Suriya’s Next Film with Mandaadi Fame Mathimaran Gets a Reported Title

Suriya is currently enjoying the success of his latest film, Scene, directed by Jithu Madhavan. Meanwhile, reports indicate that the actor’s upcoming 49th project could be titled Padagotti, with Mandaadi filmmaker Mathimaran Pugazhendhi reportedly set to direct the film.

Suriya’s upcoming film with Mathimaran to be titled Padagotti?

As reported by Valai Pechu, Suriya is likely to collaborate with Mandaadi director Mathimaran Pugazhendhi for his next project. The upcoming film is reportedly based on the lives of people living in coastal areas. Although the makers have not officially confirmed the project, reports suggest that it could carry the title Padagotti (Boatman), inspired by the MGR-starrer of the same name.

Currently referred to as Suriya49, the project is said to be envisioned as a large-scale coastal action drama, with producer Kalaippuli S. Thanu reportedly backing the venture. However, neither the film’s title nor its development has received official confirmation, and Suriya is yet to announce the project formally.

Interestingly, Suriya and producer Kalaippuli S. Thanu were earlier supposed to work together on Vaadivaasal, which is being directed by Vetrimaaran. The film has been delayed for an extended period, although the producer recently suggested that the project is still in the pipeline. It remains to be seen whether the proposed Suriya49 collaboration will move forward.

Suriya’s upcoming projects

Suriya was last seen playing the lead role in Scene, helmed by Jithu Madhavan. The film revolves around Inbaraj Pandian, an exceptionally talented police officer who wishes to leave his profession. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when a series of strange incidents begin to replicate the methods used by a notorious criminal he had previously arrested.

Suspecting that someone is recreating the earlier crimes, Inbaraj sets out to investigate the matter. During his search, he discovers that the person responsible is also familiar with his physical limitations.

As the mysterious incidents continue, Inbaraj decides to investigate the case on his own terms. He puts together an unusual team, bringing in people such as his domestic help, Maya, to help track down Easwaran, a ruthless and calculating mastermind. The story unfolds as a dark comedy revolving around their cat-and-mouse pursuit, eventually building towards a gripping confrontation.

Alongside Suriya, the film features Naslen and Nazriya Nazim Fahadh in significant roles, while Tovino Thomas and Jyotika appear in cameo roles.

On the other hand, Suriya is preparing for his next ambitious venture, tentatively titled Suriya48 (Suriya X Hombale). Directed by TJ Gnanavel, the film features Kayadu Lohar as the female lead and is reportedly scheduled to arrive in theatres on May 1, 2027.
