“Ruthless revenge in its purest form!” “Epic emotions! Raw rage! Primal courage!” Ohh hell yes! Following up on India’s RRR and Kalki 2898 AD and Brahmāstra comes yet another new heroic epic to enjoy. And it looks mega awesome! Kanguva is a new action movie bonanza from Tamil cinema’s Kollywood made by the filmmaker known as Siva, and it’s set to hit theaters worldwide in October this fall. Indian action hero Suriya stars as Kanga – the central hero. Not much is known about the plot (Indian movies tend to keep it all a secret until it opens in theaters) only that it spans hundreds of years and that the hero Kanga must complete “a mission left unfinished.” The cast includes Bobby Deol and Disha Patani (in their first Tamil films) with Natarajan Subramaniam, Jagapathi Babu, Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala, and Anandaraj. The director says it’s not really a fantasy movie, more of a historical action epic featuring real people – no superheroes, gods, or superpowers this time. All of this footage looks incredible! Calling this an action-packed trailer is an understatement. English subtitles are available on the video – just click [cc].
Here’s the full official trailer (+ poster) for Siva’s movie Kanguva, direct from YouTube (via SA):
A story that travels 500 years from the 1700’s to 2023 about a Hero (starring Suriya as Kanga) who has to fulfill a mission left unfinished. “The Tamil word Kangu means fire, and Kanguva means a man with the power of fire,” explains Siva. “The mythology-like setting might lead someone to believe this is a fantasy. However, Kanguva is not a fantasy film and Suriya sir’s character does not have any superpowers… In ancient times, we used to worship fire, the film [borrows elements] from that.” Kanguva, also known as Kanguva: A Mighty Valiant Saga, is directed by acclaimed Indian filmmaker / writer Siva (aka Sivakumar Jayakumar), director of many movies: Souryam, Sankham, Siruthai, Daruvu, Veeram, Vedalam, Vivegam, Viswasam, and Annaatthe previously. The screenplay is written by Adhi Narayana and Madhan Karky, from a story by Adhi Narayana. Produced by K. E. Gnanavel Raja, V. Vamsi Krishna Reddy, Pramod Uppalapati. Made by Studio Green & UV Creations. Siva’s Kanguva opens in cinemas in India on October 10th, 2024. It’ll also open in many theaters around the world in other countries – check your local listings.
