Aishwarya Rajesh's Soppana Sundari, which hit screens on the occasion of Tamil New Year (April 14), is gearing up for its digital premiere. The dark comedy, helmed by SG Charles, is all set to drop on Disney + Hotstar on May 12.
During the promotional event of Soppana Sundari, Aishwarya Rajesh called the film a refreshing change in her career. "I have been part of many serious films and my characters have mostly been pretty intense, too, which also involves a lot of crying. But, I had always wanted to try my hand at comedy. They say the most difficult thing to do in one's life is to make someone laugh. Once you are able to do that, you are a solid actor. I wanted to test waters in the genre and this film happened."
The actress added that while working in the film, the actress in her took a backseat. "The credit goes to the director. I just copied what Charles did before my shot. I hope he gets a great opening with the film and goes on to work with Superstar Rajinikanth himself."

The plot of Soppana Sundari revolves around a woman named Agalya (Aishwarya) from a lower-middle-class family, who wins a car in a raffle draw. Though she plans a bright future along with her mother played by Deepa Shankar and speech-impaired sister (Lakshmipriya Chandramouli), things don't really go her way. The supporting cast includes Karunakaran, Sathish Krishnan, Redin Kingsley, Mime Gopi, Sunil Reddy and Sha Ra.
The film's title is inspired from the scene in the 1989 film, Karagattakaran. The scene features ace comedians Goundamani and Senthil, who are part of a Karagattam group. Soon, a fight erupts between the two as they discuss the previous owners of their car, one of which happens to be actress Soppana Sundari.
