Soorarai Pottru starred Suriya and Aparna Balamurali in the lead. The film was partly inspired by events from the life of Simplifly Deccan founder G. R. Gopinath as described in his memoir Simply Fly: A Deccan Odyssey. The Hindi remake of Soorarai Pottru is likely to be set in a North India backdrop. While there are rumours of the film being titled Start-Up, the makers are yet to finalize a name for the film.
