Suriya's highly anticipated fantasy action film Kanguva hit the big screens on Thursday, November 14. Directed by Siva, the movie marks the Tamil debut of Bollywood actors Bobby Deol and Disha Patani. Fans of the Tamil star have stormed the theatres in huge numbers, and early reviews for the film reveal a mix of praise and criticism. Suriya plays dual roles in the film: Francis and Kanguva, characters that are from different timelines. Bobby Deol's character, Udhiran, faces off with Suriya's Kanguva in a story set a few centuries back. ‘Kanguva’ Movie Review: Save Your Ear-Drums When Watching Suriya’s Ambitious but Patience-Testing Period Saga (LatestLY Exclusive).

With Kanguva, the makers introduced a new title card for Suriya and fans are going berserk over it in the theatres.
