'I Was Paid More Than Suriya': Jyotika

Actress Jyotika has opened up about her relationship with husband Suriya, recalling the early days of their careers during a recent interview. She revealed that she earned nearly three times more than Suriya at the beginning of their film journey. Speaking in a light-hearted manner, she added that the difference has now changed significantly. Jyotika said financial comparisons never affected their relationship, as they always respected and supported each other's professional growth.

Praising Suriya, Jyotika described him as a person who has always believed in equality. She said the couple shares responsibilities equally, from film production and parenting to family decisions and vacations. According to her, their strongest bond lies in celebrating each other's success. Suriya and Jyotika, one of South India's most admired celebrity couples, fell in love while working together in films and got married on September 11, 2006 after starring in several successful Tamil movies.
