The actor, who recently moved to Mumbai with his wife and actor Jyothika and their two children, has been touring cities to promote his film.

Suriya on shifting base to Mumbai

Suriya said that he did not travel much and lived in Chennai for long. "Jyo had left her home around 17-18 and moved to Chennai, my brother has travelled too. But I am more of a Chennai person. I love Mumbai for the people here, and the food. Diya and Dev have found their tribe here and Jyo was born here. She keeps telling them about her childhood place and she is getting to spend time with her parents here for almost 20 years," he said.

When asked about the love story with Jyothika, Suriya said, “She is a Bandra girl. She was born and brought up here. Her first film in Tamil was with me, and we have done close to 6-7 films together. We were friends and well-wishers and it just happened. We did not propose to each other, but we realised we cannot be without each other.”
