The actor who made it to the big league playing different roles celebrates his birthday Today.

Thanks to his successive hits, Suriya has become a sought after star in Tamil film industry. Suriya reached the pinnacle thanks to director Bala's Nandha in which he played an angry young man's role. His successive hits in Kaakha Kaakha, Pithamagan and the Peralagan, Ghajini have taken him to new heights. Be it is a tough cop, a rustic youth or a unconventional handicap, Suriya does it with charm and grace.

Now rated a top hero in Tamil with a huge fan following, Suriya's next Jillunu Oru Kaadhal - his cousin Gnanavel is the producer - has evinced interest and curiosity in the industry. The chemistry between Suriya and Jyothika was the high point in Kaakha Kaakha. That the two joining hands again should augur well for the film's success. Hoping to win more accolades is Suriya.
