Jyothika, wife of actor Surya delivered a baby boy at a private hospital at 4.03 am on 7th june 2010. The couple was married on September 11, 2006. They already have a baby girl Diya.
There was a naming ceremony conducted today where the baby boy was named 'Dev'. Dev rhymes very well with Diya.

Ananthapurathu veedu review
Ananthapurathu veedu review:
When I started to watch the film, I must concede I was not very excited. A haunted house, a creepy old woman, a young couple with a child - I expected a rape victim ghost that wants to revenge the criminals. But I was in for a pleasant surprise.
The movie has a very interesting script that moves fast, the ghost for the first time in Tamil movies are friendly and the story line different.
Spoiler ahead, skip the following paragraph if you are yet to watch the film.
<<<<>>>>>>
Balu moves in to his ancestral home with his wife, Revathy and son Aryan. His parents were killed in a car accident leaving behind their ancestral home as his only memoir. Soon after they move in they encounter the presence of ghosts which turns out to be that of his parents. Soon we come to know that Balu is not here for a vacation but he has run away from his financial issues. Villains who are Balu's money lenders arrive and press him for money. Balu decides to sell his ancestral home. Who will dare to buy a haunted house? But suddenly the story takes an interesting twist.
<<<<>>>>
The movie has many interesting ideas- for once a not very popular but good looking hero and heroine, a lovely wood carved house, the kanyakumari slang, issue of claustrophobia etc. There is never a dull moment. There are neither gory scenes nor are scary or violent ones. The subtle creepy scenes are a breath of fresh air. The villain character is not the routine one but still malignant. There is a heavy feel good factor of parents- son sentiment. Naga shines as a good director, and Shankar proves as a producer who makes good choices. The first song is a beautiful visual treat.
It would have been better if the photos of his parents were shown in eerie black and white pictures rather than the bright modern looking color photos.
A movie worth watching. A good weekend treat!
