Suriya,
the
versatile
actor
has
started
shooting
for
Gautham

in
Netflix's

veteran
cinematographer
took

his
official
Twitter
page

segment
has
started

To
the
unversed,
The
Soorarai
Pottru
actor
is
playing
the
lead
role
in
the
talented
filmmaker's
segment
in
Navarasa,
which
is
an
anthology
web
series
that
consists
of
9
films.
The
project,
which
is
slated
to
be
released
on
Netflix,
is
produced
by
the
senior
filmmakers
Mani
Ratnam
and
Jayendra
Panchapakesan.
As
reported
earlier,
Navarasa
will
consist
of
9
short
films
based
on
the
nine
'rasas'
aka
human
emotions.
The
short
films
are
directed
by
nine
promising
filmmakers,
including
Gautham
Menon,
KV
Anand,
Karthik
Subbaraj,
Bejoy
Nambiar,
Ponram,
Karthick
Naren,
Arvind
Swami,
Halitha
Shameem,
and
Rathindran
Prasad.
The
project
is
bringing
together
Suriya
and
Gautham
Menon,
one
of
the
most-loved
actor-director
duos
of
the
Tamil
film
industry,
after
a
long
gap
of
12
years.
The
actor
has
earlier
played
the
lead
role
in
the
filmmaker's
two
most
appreciated
films,
Kaakha
Kaakha
and
Vaaranaam
Aayiram,
which
were
released
in
2003
and
2008,
respectively.
Suriya
and
Gautham
Menon
were
later
supposed
to
join
hands
for
the
romantic
drama
Chennaiyil
Oru
Mazhaikkalam
and
Dhruva
Natchathiram.
Coming
to
Chennaiyil
Oru
Mazhaikkalam,
the
project
was
dropped
after
a
few
days
of
shooting
due
to
production
issues.
Dhruva
Natchathiram,
on
the
other
hand,
was
delayed
after
Suriya
walked
out
of
the
project
citing
creative
differences.
The
actor
was
later
replaced
by
Vikram,
and
the
project
is
currently
in
the
last
stage
of
production.
