Rumors are circulating that Suriya's upcoming film, Suriya 46, might be inspired by Jean Webster's novel Daddy Long-Legs. The film's storyline, revealed by producer Naga Vamsi, has sparked discussions among fans and critics alike. Interestingly, the novel has been adapted into films before, including I.V. Sasi's Kanamarayathu (1984) and Yash Chopra's Lamhe (1991).
While there's no official confirmation on the inspiration, the film's storyline is said to revolve around a romance between a 45 year old man and a 20 year old woman. If true, the narration will need to be handled with care to avoid backlash from the audience. Music composer G.V. Prakash recently spoke about the film, describing it as a family entertainer that's being made to give an experience like Ala Vaikunthapuram Lo.
GV Prakash shared his experience working on the film, highlighting the story and genre. Despite the age gap between the leads, the film is expected to be handled sensibly, catering to all sections of audiences. Suriya, the director, and Sithara Entertainments are likely to ensure the film is made with care and respect.
The film's success will depend on how well the sensitive topic is handled. With Suriya's reputation and the team's efforts, fans are eagerly waiting to see how the story unfolds on screen. For now, the buzz around Suriya 46 continues to grow, with fans speculating about the film's plot and themes.
