What is the storyline of Suriya’s Retro?

While the Kanguva star flaunted an old-world styled moustache along with a lamb chop hairdo, Pooja, on the other hand, revisited the style of fuller, rounded eyebrows and minimal makeup.

Talking about the cast, besides Suriya and Pooja Hegde, it includes Jayaram, Joju George, Prakash Raj, Nassar, Prem Kumar, and more. Shriya Saran is rumoured to appear in a special cameo for one of the songs.

Set against the backdrop of the 1980s, Retro is reported to be a blend of gangster action and drama. However, director Karthik Subbaraj clarified that the film is primarily a romantic story with elements of intense drama.
