‘Goddess Lakshmi came home’: Suriya made his newborn daughter step into their home first

In 2007, Suriya's daughter Diya was born, prompting the family to take a unique and symbolic step before moving into their first home. Instead of entering themselves, they placed Diya's foot on the threshold, following a long-held belief that a daughter brings Goddess Lakshmi into the house. This deeply personal moment, rooted in tradition, has found its way into the silver screen.

Suriya has now revealed that a scene in the upcoming film Vishwanath and Sons, where his on-screen son Charvik enters the family home for the first time, was inspired by this very act. The actor shared this touching story during a promotional conversation with his co-stars, revealing that despite being a devoted parent, he had been less present during Diya's early years due to his demanding career.
