Profile of Surya
Saravanan "Surya" Sivakumar (born July 23, 1975) is a successful Tamil
film actor who has won several awards and critical acclaims for various roles.
He is the son of Tamil actor Sivakumar and is married to Jyothika Saravanan, a
popular former Tamil actress. He is well-known for his versatile roles in various
films. He starred in several noted films such as Nandha, Kaakha Kaakha, Ghajini,
Perazhagan, Pithamagan and Vaaranam Aayiram.
He is the eldest of three children, younger brother being the award-winning
actor Karthik Sivakumar and a younger sister named Brindha Sivakumar.
He went to the Prestigious St. Bede's School in Chennai. He graduated from
Loyola College with a Bachelor of Commerce degree and worked for a few years
in the garment industry, before foraying into the film industry. He shares a
friendship with Tamil film actor Joseph Vijay who was his classmate in college.
His debut film, Nerrukku Ner (1997) with Vijay was a big hit but all his succeeding
films did not do well. His first reasonable success was in the movie with Vijay,
Friends. But he did not get any big breaks and his career seemed to be stalled
until director Bala approached him for a role in his next venture titled Nandha,
which eventually became his first critically acclaimed film and earning him
a Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Actor.
Surya’s next venture was with Vikraman in the movie Unnai Ninaithu and
the movie was able to record good collections. This was followed by Mounam Pesiyadhe
which also did decently well. Surya’s second blockbuster was Kaaka Kaaka,
a movie about the life of a police officer. The film grossed almost 100 million
at the box office. This movie raised the profile of Surya tremendously and made
him a huge star overnight. This was also the movie that fueled intense speculation
of his relationship with fellow co-star Jyothika. This was partly due to the
strength of the screen chemistry shared by both of them on screen. Also Pithamagan
alongside Vikram was a big hit, in which Surya was appreciated for playing a
happy-go-lucky village guy and thus proving his skills as a comedian too. In
the movie Perazhagan, Surya acted in two roles, one as a boxer and the other
as a handicapped but a confident phone booth keeper. His role as the handicapped
was praised by critics, and he received a Filmfare Award for Best Actor for
his performance. His role in Aayitha Ezhuthu as a student leader was also favoured
by the critics.
In 2005, Surya delivered more successful films in the form of Aaru and Ghajini
- afterwards he set up a production company called Studio Green which distributed
the movie in the Chennai district. Ghajini was one of the most sensational hits
of 2005, with Surya playing a short term memory loss patient, for which he even
tonsured his head.
Surya's 2006 release was N. Krishna's Sillunu Oru Kaadhal. He acted opposite
his real-life partner Jyothika in the film. The film was an average grosser.The
songs from the movie became a bigger hit than the movie itself. In 2007, Surya's
solitary release was Vel. His latest film was the critically acclaimed Vaaranam
Aayiram, another venture with Gautham Menon, released on November 14, 2008 and
became a blockbuster receiving a large reception.
Surya married actress Jyothika Saravanan on September 11, 2006 in a star-studded,
traditional wedding ceremony at the Park Sheraton Hotel in Chennai. The couple
is widely recognized as an extremely popular celebrity couple in South India.
On August 10, 2007 they were blessed with a daughter by the name Diya.
