Actor Suriya’s much-anticipated film with director Siva has been titled Kanguva. The makers announced the news today with a poster and a title announcement teaser.
Like the earlier released motion poster, the intriguing title teaser too hints at a grand period film on cards.

National Press Day (November 16) was last week, and, as an entertainment journalist, I decided to base this column on a topic that is as personal as it is relevant — films on journalism and journalists.
