About Karuppu
The story follows a lawyer named Saravanan (played by Suriya) who gets possessed by a powerful deity and takes on the fight against injustice faced by marginalised communities. At the audio launch in Madurai, RJ Balaji had promised that the film would have a high point every 10 minutes. He mentioned that the first half builds strong emotional depth while the second half delivers full-on crowd-pleasing moments.
With positive buzz, solid weekend numbers, and strong hold in Tamil Nadu, Karuppu is shaping up as a winner for Suriya and the team.
