For the unversed, Suriya graduated and bagged a B.Com degree from Loyola College and joined a garments export factory in Tiruppur, and worked as a garment factory worker for six months without informing his co-workers about his real identity. When asked about the reason for it, Sivakumar claimed that he was not interested in acting those days, thus he decided to work as a factory worker. The actor had bagged a lead role in the 1995 movie Aasai but ended up rejecting it due to lack of interest. The film was offered to Ajith Kumar.

It was director Vasanth who later met the actor at his home and introduced him to the film industry with his debut film Nerukku Ner, and the rest is history.

Isn’t that just so inspiring? He indeed is very humble as a human being!

On the professional front, Suriya will next be seen in Rocketry: The Nambi Effect in a cameo role.
