The Jithu Madhavan directorial, which hit theatres on November 6 for Deepavali, features Suriya as police officer Inbaraj. Following the release of the new promo, Suriya took to X to thank Tovino for coming on board and being part of the film.

“Dear Tovino, I can’t thank you enough for being our Victor. The love and generosity with which you came on board means more to me than words can express,” Suriya wrote.

He also acknowledged the contribution of the Malayalam film industry to the project. “And to all my wonderful co-actors, technicians and creative minds from the Malayalam film industry, thank you for being with us on #Scene. It’s our little love letter to Malayalam Cinema!” he added.

Tovino Thomas’ Victor holds a crucial twist in ‘Scene’

Tovino's character is not just a brief appearance in the film. Victor, identified as the ‘perfume killer’, is linked to an important revelation involving Suriya's character. His arrest by Inbaraj leads to a major twist that changes the course of the narrative, including the revelation of the police officer's blindness.

The film follows Inbaraj, who investigates a murder case that bears similarities to a ‘perfume killer’ case he had previously solved. The investigation takes an unexpected turn as the story unfolds.

‘Scene’ also marks Nazriya Nazim's return to Tamil cinema after 12 years. She plays Maya, an ally to Suriya's character. Naslen, meanwhile, makes his Tamil debut in the film as the antagonist Eeswaran.

‘Scene’ box office collection

Released on November 6, ‘Scene’ has reportedly collected over Rs 200 crore worldwide in its first week, adding another box-office success to Suriya's filmography this year.

The film is backed by Zhagaram Studios and 2D Entertainment. It also marks music composer Sushin Shyam's Tamil debut. Ajmal Sabu has handled the editing, while Vineeth Augustian is the cinematographer.
