Tamil star Suriya and his wife Jyotika have moved to Mumbai along with their two kids. The actor who is now awaiting the release of his upcoming film 'Kanguva' said in an interview with 'The Hollywood Reporter India' that the decidion to move to Mumbai was in a way for his wife Jyotika.
What Suriya said about Jyotika
"I can be very open. At the age of 18-19, she shifted to Chennai. Almost 27 years, she was in Chennai and spent only 18 years in Mumbai. She was with me, my family. She gave up her career, friends, relatives and her Bandra lifestyle. Everything was given up, and she was in Chennai."
Jyotika's well being
“She's happy spending time here with her parents after 27 years. Whatever a man needs, a woman also needs that. I think I'm a late bloomer. She needs those vacations, her friends and her financial independence. She needs respect, her gym time, fitness and me time. Whatever we [men] crave for, she needs them too. Why take away her time from her parents, her lifestyle and what she loves to do. When are we going to do that change? Why is it always me? This is the thought behind the move. I am happy to see that growth in her as an actor,” he added.
