Tamil actor Suriya is set to become the next big thing on Twitter, after superstar Rajinikanth of course. The South Indian actor expressed a desire to keep in touch with his fans through Twitter and Facebook at a recent event for his forthcoming movie Anjaan. The trailer of the film registered one million hits within two days of the release.
The movie, directed by N Linguswamy, has Suriya playing a gangster in Mumbai. It also features the Bollywood actors Manoj Bajpai, Vidyut Jamwal, Dalip Tahil and Murali Sharma in supporting roles.
In May, Rajinikanth set up a Twitter account (@superstarrajini) to promote his film Kochadaiiyaan, setting a marketing trend. The actor attracted more than 231,000 followers within a day – and with just one tweet.
Anjaan, which is produced by Thiruppathi Brothers and UTV Motion Pictures, will be out in cinemas on August 15. -IANS
