Suriya’s Aakasam Nee Haddura (Soorarai Pottru in Tamil) is inspired by Air Deccan’s founder GR Gopinath who dreamed about making air travel affordable to the common people.
GR Gopinath achieved his dream and later could not sustain the model and sold it to Vijay Mallya. That part is however not shown in the movie. After many years, Kingfisher is dead and Vijay Mallya has gone bankrupt.
In a recent interview, Gopinath regrets selling Air Deccan since his dream of affordable Air travel did not realize. “I preferred to listen to shareholders and ignored my heart. If I have a chance to correct something in my life, I would not do that,” he said in an interview.
Probably, Sudha Kongara can consider this line and weave a fictitious story for Aakasam Nee Haddura Part 2 (Soorarai Pottru 2). Fans would want it to happen and see the film on big screens unlike the first part.
