Suriya Prefers Smaller Mumbai Home Over Chennai Bungalow
Suriya is a very famous movie actor in India.
He and his wife, Jyotika, who is also an actor, used to live in a big, fancy house in a city called Chennai.
They moved with their two children, Diya and Dev, to another big city called Mumbai.
They moved during a time called the pandemic, when many people stayed home.
They moved so Jyotika could be closer to her parents and start acting in more movies again.
Suriya says he is happier in the smaller house in Mumbai, which is 1,700 square feet, than he was in the big house in Chennai.
He says living there feels almost like being on a holiday.
Suriya was talking about this while telling people about a new movie he is in, called Vishwanath & Sons.
His co-star Radhika Sarathkumar said Suriya loves living in Mumbai and does lots of things by himself, like making coffee.
She says he looks very happy and content in his new home.
Actor couple Suriya and Jyotika moved from Chennai to Mumbai during the pandemic with their children Diya and Dev.
The relocation aimed to bring Jyotika closer to her parents in Mumbai and allow her to revive her Bollywood career.
Suriya said he feels happier in their smaller 1,700 sq ft Mumbai home than in the luxury bungalow they left behind in Chennai.
He described the Mumbai home as feeling 'almost like a holiday' during a promotional interview for his upcoming film Vishwanath & Sons.

Quotes
Radhika Sarathkumar
Co-star of Suriya in Vishwanath & Sons
“He loves it. Jyotika told me Suriya loves it (in Mumbai). He likes to come. First thing he does is, where’s my dhobi, where’s the guy with my ironing, where’s my shoes? He’ll go make coffee…he will do everything. I watched him when I went there. I feel he’s very content there.”
