Do you mean the core of Mahabharata called Jaya attributed to Vyasa?

I am not sure about that but the name Suyodhana is used extensively in several Telugu abridged Mahabharata's I have come across.

"Su" (eg: suvaasana for good smell) being Sanskrit for good whereas "Dur" (eg: durvaasana for bad smell) is used to indicate bad.

In fact I think that was the real name but later distorted to Duryodhana to indicate his bad character. I doubt any parent would name their kid as "bad".

I just remembered that Suyodhana as a grey character was portrayed in Dana Veera Soora Karna but the central focus in that movie was Karna.

When it comes to the Tamil film industry its truly a hidden gem in Indian cinematography. I believe modern Tamil films with Telugu films are making a run to out do bollywood hindi films especially with the slow closing of careers from people such as Amitabh Bachchan. I still believe when it comes to old Indian films Bengalis reign rajah. With all that said Tamil films are on a rise in looking very promising with actors such as Dhanush.
