Suriya is elated at the success of Ghajini in Telugu too. Eagerly awaiting the release of his next Aaru, Suriya says, 'I expected Ghajini to make it big. I knew hard work always pays. However I was thrilled at the big response for the movie at Andhra Pradesh. Chiranjeevi sir, who distributed the film in Andhra Pradesh appreciated me'.

Asked how Aaru is shaping up, Suriya, says, 'It is a different film. Though such action-packed movies were released before, Aaru will be different and intense action. Interestingly I speak a typical Chennai dialect in the movie'.

About his forthcoming movie, Suriya, says, 'after Jillendru oru Kadhal, I am doing a movie for Ramgopal Verma, which will be produced by Jyothika. After this, I would be doing a movie for director Gowtham Menon and then director Vasanth'.
