A month ago, Suriya had officially announced that his acclaimed film Soorarai Pottru will be remade in Hindi, with Akshay Kumar essaying the character he played in the Tamil version. Radhika Madan was roped in to play the role essayed by Aparna Balamurali in the original.

Sudha Kongara, who directed the Amazon Prime Video original film, is helming the remake version as well, and music director GV Prakash, too, has been retained by makers. A couple of days ago, there have been speculation that the Bollywood version has been titled Start Up, but the team denied it.

The latest news doing the rounds about the project was that Suriya is playing a cameo in it. And now, the actor, who received accolades for his effortless portrayal of Nedumaaran Rajangam aka Maara in the Tamil version, has confirmed it. He took to his Twitter page to officially announce the news.

He also surprised his fans and others by posting a picture of him posing for a photo along with Akshay Kumar. Suriya said that he felt nostalgic while watching Akshay play the lead character Vir in the untitled project and that he had a blast working with the team."

His tweet read, ".@akshaykumar sir to see you as #VIR was nostalgic! @Sudha_Kongara can see our story beautifully coming alive again #Maara! Enjoyed every minute with team #SooraraiPottru Hindi in a brief cameo! (sic)." Fans of Suriya now have one more reason to watch the remake of Soorarai Pottru.

Suriya's cameo in Kamal Haasan's Vikram which was released a couple of weeks ago had sent the audience into a tizzy. The star's brief appearance is one of the attractions of the action thriller. His fans are now curious to know what their favourite star has in store for them.
