The Diwali fever has set in and four biggies are gearing up to see light of day on the festival of lights, one of the films being Suriya starrer '7aum Arivu'. The film has Suriya, Shruti Haasan in lead roles with music by Harris Jayaraj whilst direction is by AR Murugadoss.
The first look that was unveiled had one of the characters played by Suriya which is that of a monk and his look as an aggressive monk in the posters was an instant hit among critics and fans. The movie starts of with Suriya in this look, and for these twenty minutes a huge sum has been shelved by the makers.
At a press conference that was held recently, Murugadoss expressed that it throws light on Bodhidharman a martial arts expert who is still worshiped in China. Huge sets have been erected to showcase the Shaolin Temple (for the construction of which he strived) and there's also a Chinese song in this part of film that goes 'Rise Of Damo...' with lyrics by Madhan Karky.

Suriya's second look is that of a circus artist and is set in contemporary period, where he woos a young scientist, Shruti Haasan who plays Subha Srinivasan in the film. This avatar of Suriya is introduced to us through the song 'Oh Ringa Ringa...' that has been canned at live locations in busy streets of Chennai with over a 1000 dancers! A series of events lead to the duo unraveling past mysteries and taking a journey backwards in time, say sources in the know.
However one of the surprises in the film will be Suriya's look as an emperor where he shares screen space with Abhinaya of 'Nadodigal' fame. It is in this part of the film where Suriya uses a black stallion extensively, which was also auctioned away recently for a good price. The cast and crew are tight-lipped about this character played by Suriya.
'7aum Arivu's rights were sold for a whooping price in Kerala recently and expectations are raving high on this film, especially after the trailer screening during the audio launch. Post your feedback in here about these looks and makeovers of Suriya and which role of his are you most excited to watch on big screen!
