September 6, 2017 marked the completion of 20 years of actor Suriya who is today one of the top league stars of Tamil cinema.  His debut film 'Nerukku Ner' had released on the same date in 1997. Having been criticized for his dance and lack of a few other capabilities required for a film hero  in his initial days, Suriya has come a long way today to be identified as an actor who could perform any kind of role with sheer finesse and rules the industry as a commercial star as well as a great actor. 

Suriya has released a statement in which he has thanked everyone who has contributed in his journey and also those who gave a "thumbs down". That shows his commitment to keep learning and achieving much bigger heights.
