Suriya isn’t blind in Scene, says writer Dravid Selvam — and fans, please stop guessing. The clarification comes just days before the film’s Deepavali release, as the internet debates whether the actor’s character is visually impaired after a brief glimpse of him leaning on Raj Priyan in the title teaser.

No, says Selvam, who’s handling dialogues for the Tamil version. ‘No,’ he told Cinema Express, dismissing the theory outright. He urged audiences to wait for the full film instead of building lore from a single frame. The film, Suriya 47, is Jithu Madhavan’s Tamil debut after Romancham and Aavesham.

It stars Suriya, Naslen (with speculation about an antagonist role), Anandraj, Lal, and Nazriya Nazim, whose look was first revealed via the new single ‘Aathi Iva Yarraa’. Music by Sushin Shyam, cinematography by Vineeth Augustian, editing by Ajmal Sabu. Zhagaram Studios and 2D Entertainment are producing, with Jaishree Damodaran as co-producer.

The film is set to hit theatres on October 6. Netflix is said to have offered ₹88 crore for post-theatrical streaming rights, but that’s unconfirmed. The plot remains under wraps. And yes, the hiking scenes still look off.

But that’s another story.
