Suriya is no longer churning out as many films as we would like him to do. But, what he lacks in quantity, he tries to make up in quality. He is amongst the few main stars of Tamil cinema, who aspire to push the envelope of mainstream cinema by means of taking dangers time and time again. Not, that all of his dangers yield preferred results. Like NGK, a courageous strive however a bad show.
There is a slim threat that 5 years down the line, NGK may additionally discover its target market and get hold of the love that it did no longer get hold of when it hit theaters. Years after human beings can also write and debate over and over about the film’s absurdity and sooner or later make experience of director Selvaraghavan’s vision.
But, that will now not appear with films in which Suriya had performed extraordinarily safe. Some of Suriya’s repeated collaborations with some of the administrators in his filmography have became out to be massive disappointments, irrespective of their field workplace performances.
Here is a listing of Suriya’s collaborations that labored the first time however failed to recreate the identical magic in repeated attempts.

Singam – It worked
Singam 2, three – Didn’t work

Singam Suriya as Singam.
Director Hari gave the most influential cop personality to Indian cinema with Singam in 2010. The movie resulted in a number of remakes and stimulated Rohit Shetty to construct his personal “cop universe”, if you will. But, Hari’s thoughts for Singam sequels grew to become stagnant.
Ayan – It worked
Maattrraan, Kaappaan – Didn’t work

Suriya on enjoying a Special Protection Group officer in Kaappaan Suriya in Kaappaan.
Ayan is one of the best industrial entertainers in the records of Tamil cinema. Director KV Anand introduced his A-game to exhibit the adventures of a globe-tottling smuggler.
Suriya’s Deva used to be a whiff of sparkling air amongst the crowd of morally upright heroes. Deva loved smuggling. He did now not have a sob story like Velu Naicker or Baasha to justify his amorality. Simply put, the actor-director duo’s subsequent ventures Maattrraan and Kaappaan had been forgettable.
