Suriya Calls Wife Jyotika the Better Actor After Mock Shoot
Suriya is an actor from India who makes movies.
He is married to Jyotika, who is also an actor.
Suriya said Jyotika is better at acting than he is.
During the Covid-19 lockdown, they had to stay at home.
Jyotika's brother sent them lines to act out together.
They filmed the scene using just a mobile phone.
Jyotika made real tears in a single try, and Suriya was very impressed.
He said he usually needs many tries and lots of preparation.
He also said Jyotika can show real feelings even when speaking a language she did not grow up with.
That is why he thinks she is the stronger performer.
Suriya said his wife Jyotika is the better actor in a joint interview with The Hollywood Reporter India.
He recalled a Covid-19 lockdown mock screen test filmed at home with a mobile phone and no crew.
Jyotika delivered an emotional scene with real tears in one take, catching Suriya off guard.
