Suriya and Bobby Deol's Kanguva, which hit the big screens on November 14, has created quite a buzz. Social media platforms are flooded with reviews of the film by fans who watched the early morning shows of the Siva-directorial. Kanguva has received mixed reviews from fans. While some called the first half of the film 'boring' and expressed disappointment over the background music, others praised Suriya's performance.
A section of social media users also called Kanguva Suriya's 'career best' performance. However, an X user requested Suriya not to return with the second part of Kanguva as he found the film 'horrible'.
"2nd Half: Disappointed 🙏🏻 CGI was the only positive. Screenplay, fights and the CAMEO were all a let down. HORRIBLE AUDIO. I really feel bad for Suriya sir. Please don’t do Kanguva-2. Please come back stronger," the user's post read.
Another post read, "#Kanguva's production & costume design are gorgeous but I also wish the same energy went into writing an emotionally fulfilling screenplay. It worked for me as a one time theatrical watch purely for Suriya, Bobby Deol, the visuals and my man DSP but that's it."

Speaking about the film earlier, Suriya had told PTI that he wanted to make something like Hollywood movies like Braveheart and The Lord of the Rings. "Siva came up with this idea of what if we go back a few 100 years... What would happen if our people lived such life and had a complex situation? Let's picture that and that's how the whole thing came about," he had said.
