The ‘Kaaka Kaaka’ and ‘Maasu…’ actor added: “In the meantime, I have wrapped up the work on my film, 24, and the team is working hard to bring it to the theatres at the earliest.”

The third instalment in the highly successful "Singam" franchise will feature Shruti Haasan and Anushka Shetty as Suriya's love interests.

To be produced by 2D Entertainment and directed by Hari, the makers plan to release the film during April 2016.

Meanwhile, Suriya is currently awaiting the release of Tamil thriller "24", which is currently in its post-production phase.
