In the ensuing fracas, Sethuraman’s family is destroyed, Athreya is crippled and comatose, and the baby is handed off to a stranger for safe keeping. After a bit of exposition introducing his wife and child, his laboratory is invaded by his villainous twin brother Athreya (Suriya #2), dressed in a sharp suit and looking to take possession of this priceless device to use for his own nefarious causes. The film opens with nerdy-scientist Sethuraman (Suriya #1) working frantically on his latest invention, a time machine modeled to resemble a wristwatch. It is a huge risk, but somehow Suriya and Kumar make it work. While an actor performing multiple roles in a film in India are nothing new – Shah Rukh Khan’s Fan just opened a few weeks ago, in which he plays dual leads – actors rarely have the opportunity to portray three characters in the same film. Suriya not only stars in 24, but he plays the three main characters, meaning that the film lives and dies with his performance(s). The film was produced by Suriya’s own fledgling production company 2D Entertainment and he has really put everything he’s got into it, literally. Suriya is back!Ģ4 is a time-travel romantic thriller that plays with the tropes that we expect from all three of those different genres of films in a way that is uniquely Indian. I say all of that to say this, I went into Vikram Kumar’s latest film, 24, with great reservations, hoping against hope that it would finally be the film to bring Suriya out of his trough and I’m happy to say that it’s finally happened. However, he’s been in a major slump over the last decade and his fans, me included, have watched with pity as he’s made one bad decision after another.

Regardless, the films Suriya makes try to be good fun, often with some pretty high concept ambitions. Butler, he’s had a very hard time translating that charisma into good films. Suriya has huge charisma, but for the last several years, not unlike Mr. He’s a buff pretty boy who seems to be equally at home in romantic comedies and action films. If I were to compare him to a similar performer in Hollywood, I’d say he’s kind of like the Gerard Butler of Kollywood. An admission up front: I am a huge fan of Tamil film superstar Suriya.
