Dubbing their milestone anniversary as 'The Sequel', Suriya and Jyotika released a video from their vow renewal ceremony that featured glimpses from the intimate ceremony, along with touching moments with their kids, BTS moments with their guests and their stunning photoshoot."THE SEQUEL -A vow renewal, celebrating our 20 years of love and war.

And no, this is not a celebration of a perfect marriage. This is a celebration of imperfections, of adjustments, of understanding, sacrifices, of loving each other selflessly. This is a celebration of "us". The people we have become for each other," the couple wrote in the caption.Jyotika also shared her vows as she raised a toast to the next twenty years together. "I vow to be a happy person - because I choose to see only life's positive side," she began and went on to add, "I vow to celebrate life — because life itself is a gift when the man whom you love, respects you beyond himself.

I vow never to complain- Why should I ? when even something as vast as the sky doesn’t have the privilege of touching the ground! Look around, everything in existence is incomplete.

It’s how we choose to fill the gaps.""I vow to be thankful - as every morning I wake in the arms of a man who protects me, and for my beautiful children who've given my life a meaning. And me, a reason to live. I vow to be healthy — because that is the only true asset we ever build.

Even the fanciest brick houses will always have their leaks, termites, and renovations."Sharing her vows about being the best mother and wife, she further wrote, "I vow to be the best mother — not because I cook, or clean, or help, but because I smile, a smile that makes my children want to relive the story their appa amma lived. I vow, my Suriya, to always remain that imperfect wife , who fights, and then makes up, only to grow a little more closer to you each time.""I vow to cherish our friendship most of all — because it’s rare to find your equal, your confidant, your gossip partner and your best friend, all living inside this one special man who also happens to be your husband and the father of your children," she promised her hubby.Raising a toast to their lives ahead, she said, "So here’s to our next twenty years — The imperfect us, with the perfect understanding."Suriya and Jyotika tied the knot on September 11, 2006, in Chennai, after their relationship blossomed while working together in Tamil films. Interestingly, their wedding came just three days after the release of 'Sillunu Oru Kaadhal', in which they played a married couple. The couple went on to welcome two children together - daughter Diya, born in 2007, and son Dev, born in 2010. Over the years, the couple have largely kept their family life private, while occasionally sharing glimpses of their children.On the work front, Suriya has several projects lined up. His upcoming film with director Jithu Madhavan is titled Scene. He is also set to collaborate with director TJ Gnanavel on another project backed by Hombale Films.
