About Sarfira
Sarfira, directed by Sudha Kongara, released in theatres on Friday. It also features Radhika Madan, Paresh Rawal and Seema Biswas. The film will have a guest appearance by Suriya. It has also been written by Sudha and Shalini Ushadevi. Sarfira is produced by Aruna Bhatia (Cape of Good Films), Suriya and Jyotika (2D Entertainment) and Vikram Malhotra.
Set in the world of startups and aviation, Sarfira inspires the common man to dream big and to chase dreams. It is a uniquely Indian story of grit, determination and jugaad, of an underdog challenging the socio-economic fabric of a system entrenched in class, caste and power dynamics. Sarfira is the remake of Soorarai Pottru which was headlined by Suriya.
