The music for Retro is composed by Santhosh Narayanan, while the visuals are handled by cinematographer Shreyaas Krishna. Shafique Mohamed Ali is the editor of the film.
Suriya’s last major appearance was in the fantasy film Kanguva where he played a bounty hunter with a mysterious past. Although it was highly awaited, Kanguva didn’t perform well at the box office. Now, all eyes are on Retro to bring back the magic.
Suriya is also working on his next film, Suriya 45 directed by RJ Balaji and co-starring Trisha Krishnan.
