At the press meet of the project which was held the other day, the actor-filmmaker reminisced about his journey and spoke about how he lost his money when he was a producer several years ago which led to him staying away from the limelight for sometime.

He narrated in brief how a junior artist went on to become a director and an actor, then saved money and lost it when he became a producer. After scoring success with Iraivi in his second innings, he recollected how projects like Spyder, Mersal and Monster helped him to score a comeback.

Suryah said he had decided not to make the mistake of becoming a producer again. However, he confessed he couldn't control the urge to invest when Radha Mohan came up with Bommai a few years ago. He also revealed his disappointment when his movie with Amitabh Bachchan got stalled.

Suryah added, "I lead a simple life, I have always invested whatever I had earned through cinema in cinema itself. It was my gut feeling which made me one of the producers of Bommai. I am looking forward to its release."
