Suriya becomes the first Tamil actor to join the Academy
It is indeed a huge honor for actor Suriya, as he has been invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences as the Oscar organizer. Suriya has been offered a membership after his films in Soorarai Pottru and Jai Bhim have been noticed by the Academy.
Suriya is one out of only two actors from India who have received the invite – Kajol being the other. This is a big moment of pride for the Tamil film industry as Suriya has soared with this massive announcement.
Thank you @TheAcademy for the invitation, which I humbly accept. My heartfelt thanks to all those who wished me, will always strive to make you all proud!! 🙏🏽 https://t.co/eyEK9hQxhF
