Actors Suriya and Jyotika are recently getting involved in a lot of philanthropic activities. These days, they are juggling with their new parenthood and careers, and still find time to continue their philanthropic activities. The couple has lately been very active with Agaram Foundation, started by actor Sivakumar. The foundation has adopted two schools and is engaged in activities to promote education. It is well known that this couple, in collaboration with Tamil Nadu Educational board, is making a short film to promote education among children in villages and from the poorer sections of the society, especially girls. It also touches upon the subject of autism. The aim of this short film is to promote education and stop these children from dropping out of schools.
This documentary is on the verge of completion and is being eagerly awaited by everyone as it brings together almost all the stars of Kollywood, including Vijay and Madhavan. Though Ajith wanted to participate, he could not do so because of tight schedules plus health problems related to his spine surgery. K.V. Anand is the cameraman; Harris Jayaraj is composing music; Mani Rathnam and Rajiv Menon are also associated with this documentary.
This is Jyotika’s first tryst with the camera after her marriage. She is known to be very much involved with her family, especially with her daughter; so much so that she stopped acting after marriage. But she agreed to do this film to support the noble cause. Ignoring the hot summer, she reported for outdoor shooting for this movie. The film’s shooting began last month with some scenes being shot at Marina Beach. It was a scene in which Jyotika walking on the beach with a bunch of kids.
Suriya, despite being busy with Varaanam Ayiram and Ayan, is giving his best for this documentary. He is planning his schedules in advance and making adjustments so as to be available for this film’s shooting. In fact, the visible happiness generated by working together in this documentary has sparked speculations that this couple might soon act again in a commercial venture too.
The couple has become very noticeable by their noble deeds. Chennai's citizens have the highest regards for this famous couple in this city. Our city’s high regards for them can be likened to the regards that people had for Rajiv and Sonia or Charles and Diana.
