A Power-Packed Cast and Plot with Heart
Apart from Suriya and Pooja Hegde, the film features a star-studded ensemble including Jayaram, Joju George, Karunakaran, Nassar, and Prakash Raj. Actress Shriya Saran will also be seen in a special cameo appearance.
The buzz around Retro began during Christmas 2024 when the teaser was launched. Set against the spiritual backdrop of Varanasi, the teaser revealed a moving moment where Pooja Hegde’s character ties a sacred thread on Suriya’s wrist symbolizing a promise to leave behind violence and choose a life of love and peace.
What’s Next for Suriya and Pooja Hegde?
Suriya’s last film Kanguva, a period fantasy epic directed by Siva, was a major production spanning over 1,500 years. Packed with war sequences and grandeur, it showcased his versatility as an actor. With Retro, he seems to be embracing a more emotional and gritty storyline, without losing the intensity.
Meanwhile, Pooja Hegde was last seen in Deva opposite Shahid Kapoor. Now with Retro, she takes on a new role that has fans curious to see how her chemistry with Suriya unfolds on screen.
