Ever wonder what a secure man looks like? We have the answer to your question: it's Suriya. The Tamil actor is a walking green flag, and his latest interview is proof. In a recent conversation, Suriya revealed that in the early days of their career, his now-wife Jyotika's salary was three times higher than his own for a film, and he was fully aware of Jyotika's position in the industry.
In an interview with Mashable, the 'Kanguva' actor shared his experience working with Jyotika in her second Tamil film, Vasanth's 1999 release. While praising his wife, he said, “I knew Tamil, I was supposed to be an actor’s son, but I was fumbling, forgetting my lines, and I didn’t know how to act. It was my third or fourth film. I had a lot of respect for her work ethic; she would know the lines better than me. She would learn them by heart and was quite sincere.”
