Throwback: Karthi reveals brother Suriya's childhood crush was actress Gautami— ‘He liked her a lot'
Recently, Balakrishna's talk show Unstoppable with NBK featured actor as a guest. He talked candidly about everything in a segment, including his favorite food and his best performance to date. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now His brother Karthi, who joined them over the phone, was far more forthcoming, even though he wouldn't name his childhood crush. "I am a late bloomer" During the show, Suriya disclosed that his favorite dish was biryani and that he was pleased with his performance in Soorarai Pottru. "(I am a) late bloomer, sir," he said, refusing to give the name of the person he had his first crush on. It took some time to understand the crush and everything. Unable to let go, Balakrishna called Karthi to double-check the responses and inquire as to whether Suriya had been honest with him. Karthi agreed in jest when he said that Suriya had told him numerous lies, saying, "He has been like that since childhood." Karthi also made a joke about how his brother gets annoyed just by looking at him and that they don't even need an excuse to argue. "He likes one actress a lot," Karthi said in response to Balakrishna's "most important question," which was who Suriya's first crush was. Chikubuku Raile is a song. 'Yes, is it Gautami?' Balakrishna asked, realizing what he meant. Karthi gave a positive response. "Karthi, nuvvu katthi ra, Karthi kadu," said in Telugu by an apparently embarrassed Suriya. (Karthi, you're dangerous like a knife.) For those who haven't heard it, Gauthami and Prabhu Deva's special number from Shankar's 1993 film Gentleman is called Chikubuku Raile. Along with Suriya, other guests on Unstoppable with NBK have so far included Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu, Dulquer Salmaan, and Meenakshi Chaudhary. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Suriya remains one of the most popular and versatile actors in Tamil cinema as of 2025. He is set to play the lead in director 's eagerly anticipated period drama Puranaanooru, which explores Tamil heritage, following his highly praised roles in Jai Bhim and the National Award-winning Soorarai Pottru. Additionally, he plays a key part in Kanguva, a bold fantasy action movie that looks to be a visual extravaganza. In addition to performing, Suriya is still actively involved with 2D Entertainment, where he produces films with a lot of content and helps up-and-coming filmmakers in South Indian cinema.
