Suriya on impact of Jai Bhim and Kaakha Kaakha
In conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Suriya spoke about his films like Jai Bhim and Kaakha Kaakha. "I truly believe in takeaways. When you go back home, somewhere it should make you think, change you as a person, make you debate and learn something. In 2002 I did Kaakha Kaakha, and 2002-2005 batch of IPS officers, most of them have seen the film. Many have left their jobs to become some officers. I recently met a district magistrate who said he watched the film and became this.”
Suriya added that movies should make people a better version of themselves and mentioned that Jai Bhim brought in a change in law. "Chief Minister was able to watch it, the census was taken and about three lakh lives were changed. Anything can happen in life, but family, friends, and faith are most important in life,” he added.
