Actor Karthi, basking in the success of his Tamil-Telugu bilingual Thozha, has now turned his sights to promoting his brother Suriya’s upcoming film 24.
The film features Suriya in three roles — and is crucial for the actor’s career. Hence, he has roped in his brother to help him rev up hype for the flick.
Says Karthi, “I feel this script of 24 has given Suriya the potential to enact multiple shades of characters. This will be an attempt towards trying out exciting ideas with the entertainment framework.”
Karthi insists he will watch 24 with the audience to gauge its response — “I'm quite excited to see it with the audience. I agree with a fan who tweeted after the teaser release, saying this is the kind of avatar Surya should be seen in.”
Suriya saw Karthi’s Thozha, and the elder brother liked what his sibling had done. “He loved the film. He was happy I got a script to be able to make people laugh and emote. He told me, ‘If you want to achieve something, then you should be deserving. You have to change as a person to become an actor and a star, improve yourself a lot and keep learning.’ Suriya keeps pushing the boundaries and tries out new stuff, irrespective of the time it consumes and the amount of work it demands. Now that, is my inspiration.”
