Telugu actor Sunil has revealed that the blockbuster ‘Pushpa’ was the catalyst for the most unexpected chapter of his career. In a candid interview at the pre‑release event in Hyderabad, Sunil confessed that after starring with Allu Arjun, his life entered a “surprise mode” – he never knows which language, when or what kind of role will come his way next.
The excitement stems from his upcoming pan‑India project, tentatively titled “Marii”, directed by veteran filmmaker Paul George and produced by Sharif Mohammad. The film, set for a massive release on May 28, will roll out in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi, making it one of the biggest multilingual ventures of the year. Sunil will essay the pivotal character “Marii”, a role he describes as deeply satisfying and unlike anything he has done before.
He praised the film’s music composer Ravi Basrur, whose background score promises to add a grand, high‑octane vibe to the narrative. “The logic and intensity of this movie are on another level,” Sunil said, calling it one of the most expensive productions he has been part of. The star also highlighted the camaraderie on set, noting how director Paul George’s passion, co‑star Kabir Duhan Singh’s relentless work ethic, and the entire technical crew’s dedication made the shooting experience truly memorable.
“‘Marii’ blends high‑energy action with emotional depth, and I can’t wait for audiences to enjoy it in theatres,” Sunil added. The cast, which includes Harish Shankar, Hani Sha, and rapper Baby Gene, is confident the film will entertain and surprise viewers across India. Mark your calendars – the film hits screens on May 28, promising a cinematic ride that lives up to Sunil’s newfound surprise mode.
