The wait is almost over for fans of Tamil cinema superstar Suriya, as the much-anticipated period-action drama Kanguva is set to grace theatres on November 14, 2024. Production house Studio Green made the announcement on Thursday, unveiling a motion poster that has already sent waves of excitement through fans across social media. The film marks the Tamil cinema debuts of Bollywood stars Disha Patani and Bobby Deol.
In a post shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), the makers of the film declared, “The Battle of Pride and Glory, for the world to witness. #Kanguva’s mighty reign storms screens from 14-11-24.” This announcement was accompanied by an electrifying motion poster featuring the film’s lead, Suriya, as the fierce warrior Kanguva, squaring off against Bobby Deol’s character, Udhiran.

Originally scheduled for release on October 10, Kanguva‘s release date was rescheduled to avoid a box-office clash with Rajinikanth’s highly anticipated Vettaiyan. However, the delay has only heightened excitement for the film, as the August 12 release of the film’s official trailer teased a power-packed narrative that promises to be a grand cinematic experience.
Directed by Siva, Kanguva is more than just a battle between two warriors. The film intertwines the past and present, weaving a compelling narrative that spans 500 years—from the 1700s to the present day. With its mix of historical elements, action, and fantasy, the movie promises to offer something truly unique.
A Stellar Ensemble Cast
Besides Suriya and Bobby Deol, Kanguva boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Disha Patani, who plays the female lead. Veteran actors Jagapathi Babu, Natty Natarajan, KS Ravikumar, and Kovai Sarala will also be seen in pivotal roles, adding depth to the film’s character-driven plot.
Perhaps one of the most talked-about aspects of the film is Suriya’s portrayal of six distinct characters across different time periods. Each character is expected to bring its own flavor, from valiant heroism to deep-rooted conflict, highlighting Suriya’s incredible versatility as an actor.
Behind the Scenes: Visuals and Music
With cinematography by the acclaimed Vetri Palanisamy, audiences can expect breathtaking visuals that capture the scope and grandeur of the film’s historical settings. The film’s soundtrack, composed by Devi Sri Prasad, promises to be another highlight, with the score underscoring the epic battle scenes and emotional beats throughout the movie.
A Two-Part Cinematic Experience
Kanguva is set to be released in two parts, allowing the story to be explored in its full complexity. Additionally, the film will be released in 10 languages, including Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada, ensuring its reach to a wide and diverse audience across India.
Theatrical and Streaming Release
While fans are gearing up for the film’s theatrical release in November, there is more good news on the horizon. Following its theatrical run, Kanguva will be available to stream on Prime Video, allowing audiences worldwide to experience the epic action and gripping storytelling from the comfort of their homes.
As anticipation builds, all eyes are on Kanguva, which promises to be a saga of heroism, pride, and unfinished quests. With Suriya at the helm, supported by a stellar cast and crew, this period-action drama is poised to become one of the biggest cinematic events of 2024.
