Karthik Subbaraj's next film

Karthik Subbaraj’s official announcement on His Next Project

Karthik Subbaraj, known for his work on high-budget films like Petta, Mahaan, Jagame Thanthiram, and the recent Retro starring Suriya, has revealed his plans for his next project. In a recent statement, the director shared that his next film will be an independent, content-driven venture.

According to Subbaraj, the film will be a small-budget project featuring new talent, and it has been in the works for some time. The director stated, “My next film after Retro might be an independent film. I will make a film, just send it to festivals, and it might be released in theatres after about a year. I have a script ready from long ago, and it’s a small budget film with new artists.”

This marks a departure from Subbaraj’s usual mass-market films, as he plans to step away from the larger-than-life narratives and focus on content-driven storytelling. It’s refreshing to see the director, who has built a reputation for his successful big-budget films, explore a more intimate, festival-focused project. Fans are eager to see how Subbaraj’s artistic evolution unfolds with this new direction.
