The trailer of Karuppu, Tamil superstar Suriya’s much-awaited masala actioner directed by RJ Balaji, was unveiled by the makers on Sunday (May 10). Starring Trisha as the female lead, the film is set to release in theatres on May 14.

The trailer begins to show Balaji as a dreadful lawyer named Baby Kannan, who heads a kangaroo court with a group of lawyers. “This is my court, my domain. Even if God shows up, he can’t change a thing,” Kannan tells his rival lawyer, played by Trisha. When injustice increases, Kannan’s wish comes true: God shows up. We see Suriya appear as Karuppu, a personification of Lord Karuppanna Saamy. As promised and prophesied, Karuppu tastes blood as he seeks justice for the victims of Kannan’s atrocities. A fiery actioner begins.

Karuppu also stars Indrans, Natty, Swasika, Sshivadha, Anagha Maya Ravi, Supreeth Reddy and Deepa, among others. With music scored by Sai Abhyankkar, the film has cinematography by GK Vishnu and editing by R Kalaivanan.

Ashwin Ravichandran, Rahul Raj, TS Gopi Krishnan and Karan Aravind Kumar have written Karuppu along with Balaji. SR Prakash Babu and SR Prabu produce the film under their Dream Warrior Pictures banner.
