Last Updated: Jyotika took to her Instagram handle and shared a video from her recent vacation with Suriya in Seychelles Jyotika and Suriya are one of the most adorable couples, and fans loved them. The actress recently treated fans to a dreamy peek into her vacation with husband Suriya in Seychelles. Taking to social media, the actress shared a video giving a glimpse of serene and romantic photos from their tropical getaway, describing it simply as a trip to 'paradise." Taking to her Instagram handle, Jyotika shared a video offering a glimpse of her vacation. 'Another day for you and me in paradise. Thank u Abhishek and Lyn for this beautiful memory at Seychelles," read the caption. One of the fans wrote, 'For the first time, 'made for each other' didn't feel like just words. It felt real. It felt alive." Another wrote, 'Once Suriya Naa Said : Yellaa Sacrifice ayum Enakkaaga, En Kozhandhaigalukaaga Panra, Enna Nadikka Vidra Ennoda Jyotika Kaaga." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jyotika (@jyotika) Suriya will next be seen in the Tamil action-thriller film, Karuppu. The first look from the film was unveiled today, June 20. Though only the actor's silhouette was visible in the poster, the striking red background is enough to give you the chills. The poster for Karuppu is visually intense, immersed in a striking blood-red hue, setting a powerful and ominous tone. At the center is actor Suriya, silhouetted against the red mist, holding a large machete in a commanding pose. His stance conveys confrontation, strength, and possibly vengeance. Surrounding him are religious and ritualistic elements like tridents (trishuls) and towering statues, hinting at a deeper mythological or spiritual layer to the narrative. The smoke-filled background adds to the mystical atmosphere, while the title Karuppu, meaning 'black' in Tamil, is boldly displayed in sharp red typography, suggesting themes of darkness, intensity, and moral complexity. Dropping the poster, Suriya tagged the film's writer-director RJ Balaji, and wrote, 'Here's our #Karuppu for you..! Wishing you all happiness @RJ_Balaji (sic)." Karuppu, starring Suriya in the lead, is produced by Dream Warrior Pictures and written and directed by RJB, with cinematography by GK Vishnu and music by Sai Abhyankar. Given RJ Balaji's previous successes like Mookuthi Amman and Veetla Visesham, expectations are high that the film will strike a balance between good content with a mass appeal. It is planned for release this October during Diwali. First Published: June 29, 2025, 14:01 IST

10 visionaries, 10 movies, one announcement: 'Mookuthi Amman 2' makers share a stunning update
In the 80s, a film was considered a big film if its budget was ₹25 lakh. But over time, that value has crossed the crores. Currently, there are corporate companies in Kollywood that produce films at a cost of over ₹500 crore. The fact that leading actors like Rajinikanth , Vijay, and Ajith are being paid ₹200 crores alone shows this change. As a result, it is now impossible for individual producers to make films with them. Therefore, in this situation, they only work with big production houses. One of the most important of these corporate production companies is the production house owned by Isari Ganesh, the makers of 'Mookuthi Amman 2.' Although he is from the academic field, he has a great passion for cinema. Following in his father's footsteps, he has also acted in some small roles in cinema. Today, many of the films he has produced have successfully run in theaters. The production house has bankrolled many films, including 'LKG,' 'Comali,' 'Ennai Noki Payum Thotta,' 'Mookuthi Amman,' 'Vendu Thaninatha Kadu,' 'Singapore Saloon,' and 'Sumo.' Currently, the film Mookuthi Amman 2, starring Nayanthara and directed by Sundar C , is also being produced by the company. Following this, it is big news that the production house has set up a plan to produce films worth around ₹1000 crore. To confirm future projects, the production house has announced 10 films with 10 directors, and the announcement was made official through an introduction video of 10 directors. Sundar C, Gautham Menon, Vetri Maaran , Mari Selvaraj, Prem Kumar, Jude Anthany, Arunraja Kamaraj , Vignesh Raja, Chella Ayyavu, and Ganesh K Babu are the directors who will be next directing the upcoming films bankrolled by 'Mookuthi Amman 2' makers. Plans have been made for films starring Dhanush, Arya, Rajinikanth, Ravi Mohan, and others. Also, talks are underway with Ajith. If it happens, there is a possibility that Wells will produce Ajith's next film, directed by Adhik Ravichandran. The company is planning to release announcements of the films it is producing one after the other, raising expectations.
