His upcoming film, Matka, releasing on November 14, is seen as a make-or-break film for him. It is the most crucial film of his career.

However, Matka will be competing directly with Kanguva, a highly anticipated pan-India film starring Suriya.
Matka has a promising teaser, but it still needs to generate more buzz to stand a chance against the massive hype surrounding Kanguva.

Directed by Karuna Kumar, Matka is inspired by real-life events and focuses on the rise of Matka, a gambling phenomenon from the 1960s.
Kanguva is being hailed as one of Suriya’s biggest projects, boasting a significant budget and generating excitement, especially among Tamil and Telugu audiences.
The film will also feature midnight premieres for its Telugu version, tapping into the growing trend of 1 AM shows, as seen with recent releases like Guntur Kaaram and Devara.
With the high expectations for Kanguva and its strong star power, Matka will need exceptionally good content to make an impact and survive the competition at the box office, particularly in the Telugu states.
