Jyothika is one of the popular actors in South cinema. She was born and brought up in Mumbai, but after marriage, she settled in Chennai with her family. However, she recently shifted back to Mumbai with the support of her husband, Suriya. But, the media looked at it from a different angle, speculating that the couple is on the verge of separation. But, Suriya gave full and final clarity on why it happened.
In fact, the entire family moved to Mumbai, with Suriya going up and down from Chennai. Suriya will reportedly work for 20 days a month, and then, he will be in Mumbai with his family for the next ten days.
Speaking in an interview during the promotions of Kanguva, Suriya said, “At the age of 18, she moved to Chennai, and she is with my family and me, and she gave up her career. She spent 27 years in Chennai. But now, she is back in Mumbai, enjoying her Bandra lifestyle.”
“But, I think whatever a man craves, a woman also craves the same. She needs her time, and why should I take her away from her parents and lifestyle? It was the thought that I realized very late. At the same time, my kids also found their interesting subjects in Mumbai and their schooling is also going well here. Hence, I decided to balance between Chennai and Mumbai,” he said.
Going by what Suriya said, it seems a conscious decision to keep Jyothika happy. Suriya is someone who is always known for having his private time with family. The way he realized how important it was for Jyothika also to work on herself and her career and the way he took the big decision is definitely impressive.
So, the couple is not on the verge of separation but planning their lives in such a way that the entire family lives happy.
