Just hours ago actor Suriya Sivakumar shared an emotional X post with a personal video message celebrating the love, name, and fame pouring in for his film Karuppu (also titled VeeraBhadrudu in Telugu).
The film, which faced last-minute delays and cancellations due to financial hurdles before releasing on May 15, has opened to strong positive word-of-mouth, packed theaters, and huge celebrations across Tamil and Telugu markets.
Key highlights from Suriya’s X post & video:
– The video (2+ minutes long): Suriya speaks directly to the camera, smiling and visibly moved. He thanks fans for their support during the tough pre-release phase (“This film couldn’t be released on the 14th… You sent me tweets, voice messages, phone calls… You changed everything”). He highlights the theater vibe since the May 15 release and says words aren’t enough to express his gratitude.
– In the accompanying text post, he credits the entire team:
#Karuppu
The love, name & fame we are getting from across the globe, goes to the entire cast & crew of #Karuppu who believed & worked hard. Backed by @DreamWarriorpic, S R Prakash Babu & @prabhu_sr

Sai! No words to thank you @SaiAbhyankkar Happy for the love you are getting. You are the backbone for our film to have this level of vibe & celebration in theaters.

Fans and netizens are already reacting massively to the post, calling it a perfect full-circle moment after the film’s rocky journey to success.
This comes on the heels of earlier thanks from Suriya and the makers for fan patience during the delays, plus special shout-outs like the on-screen “Thank You” card to Tamil Nadu CM Vijay.
Karuppu is now buzzing as a strong comeback for Suriya, with reports of loud theater responses and positive reviews pouring in.
