SJ Suryah on Kushi 2
During the promotions of Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, Priyanka Arul Mohan asked SJ Suryah about when he will do Kushi 2, and actor-politician Pawan Kalyan who played the first part, will be in the sequel. To this, Suryah replied, "There is a story of Kushi 2 with Pawan Kalyan. He enjoyed it so much and wanted to do it. But I did not name it Kushi 2 and narrated the story to him. It is a very good. He still enjoys it. But later, he said he is past doing love stories even though I convinced him he can do it. Yet, Pawan Kalyan felt it is not right time for him." When asked who are the other actors, he can do Kushi 2 with, Suryah replied that Nani, Ram Charan and Vijay will suit the bill.

The film revolves around two youngsters who are in love yet prevented to unite due to their respective egos. The film was subsequently remade in Tamil with the same title with Vijay and Jyothika. Both the versions were commercial blockbusters.
