According to the makers, "Sarfira" is a uniquely Indian story of "grit, determination and jugaad, of an underdog challenging the socio-economic fabric of a system entrenched in class, caste and power dynamics".
It also features Paresh Rawal, Radhika Madan, and Seema Biswas in pivotal roles.
The film is written by Kongara and Shalini Ushadevi, with dialogues by Pooja Tolani. It is produced by Aruna Bhatia of Cape of Good Films, South superstars Suriya and Jyotika's 2D Entertainment, and Vikram Malhotra-led Abundantia Entertainment.
'Soorarai Pottru' revolved around Nedumaaran Rajangam or “Maara” (played by Suriya), who sets out to make the common man fly and in the process takes on the world’s most capital-intensive industry with the help of his family, friends and sheer will power.
It was partly inspired by events from the life of Air Deccan founder Captain G R Gopinath.
