Suriya Teams Up with Pooja Hegde in “Retro”
Actress Pooja Hegde has expressed a deep emotional connection to her character in the forthcoming film “Retro,” which stars Suriya as the lead. On Christmas Day, both actors utilized their social media platforms to unveil the title of the much-anticipated gangster drama.
Suriya shared the title teaser on X, previously known as Twitter, wishing his followers a Merry Christmas and revealing, “Merry Christmas Dear All #Retro Summer 2025. Meet you all soon! @karthiksubbaraj @hegdepooja @C_I_N_E_M_A_A @Music_Santhosh @kshreyaas.”
Pooja took to Instagram, posting a link to the teaser and adding, “This character has a piece of my heart. #RETRO A love story on adrenaline,” indicating the emotional weight her role carries.
The film was initially referred to as Suriya 44, marking this as the actor’s 44th movie. The teaser, lasting two minutes, offers a glimpse into the intense and gritty environment of “Retro.” It opens with Pooja and Suriya situated by a ghat, where Pooja’s character, a village girl, can be seen tying a sacred band around Suriya’s wrist, portraying their romantic connection.
In the teaser, Suriya’s character is heard saying, “I will control my temper…. I’ll leave it all behind from this moment. I’ll try to smile and be happy. The purpose of my life in your words, Dhammam is love. Pure love,” highlighting the film’s themes of love and personal growth.
Prior to this project, Suriya appeared in “Kanguva,” where he faced off against Bollywood actor Bobby Deol in the role of an antagonist.
Pooja Hegde, on her part, is busy with several other exciting ventures on her roster, including “Deva,” “Thalapathy 69,” and “Hai Jawaani Toh Ishq Hona Hai.” Earlier in December, she began a new shooting schedule for “Thalapathy 69” in Chennai, sharing her enthusiasm with her audience. She posted a picturesque view from the set, captioning it, “Chennai Mornings Day 16,” which indicated a rigorous start to her day at 6:30 a.m.
“Thalapathy 69” marks Pooja’s first onscreen collaboration with renowned actor Vijay. Directed by H. Vinoth and produced by Venkat K. Narayana under KVN Productions, this film is poised to be a significant milestone in Vijay’s illustrious career and a grand tribute to his legacy.
