Tamil film industry is in mourning following the sudden demise of renowned director Surya Prakash. Best known for his work on the critically acclaimed film Maayi, Prakash passed away due to a heart attack.
Surya Prakash’s directorial debut, Manikkam, didn’t turn out to be a hit, but his sophomore film Maayi, starring Sarathkumar and Meena, catapulted him to fame. The film, celebrated for its rooted narrative and powerful performances, remains a notable rural drama in Tamil cinema.
The news of his untimely death has left his colleagues and fans in shock. Veteran actor Sarathkumar, who played the lead in Maayi, expressed his sorrow on social media, paying tribute to the director. Sarathkumar wrote, “The news that my dear friend Suryaprakash, who directed me in the hit films Maayi and Diwan has joined the Lord early this morning is shocking and painful. Having spoken to him even yesterday, his sudden demise in this volatile life has left me with a heavy heart. My deepest condolences to his family and friends who are grieving his loss. I pray to God to rest his soul in peace.”
