Southern superstar Suriya celebrated his birthday yesterday i.e. on July 23 and he did something really special! Suriya has apparently donated Rs 1 crore to the farmers in Tamil Nadu. Now that's what makes him a true blue superstar! Instead of going out partying and spending lavishly (not that we are against it but what he did instead is rather a gentlemanly gesture) and helping the needy is how he decided to celebrate this day and that has made us respect him even more.

Advance wishes started pouring in for the actor on social media when his fans flooded the internet with birthday wishes. He is a big sensation in the South with millions of them following him. This gesture by Suriya for the farmers of Tamil Nadu is going to only increase his fan following. We bet fans are more than happy to hear this news.

Trade analyst Ramesh Bala took to Twitter to make this announcement where he mentioned how Suriya did the noble deed of helping out the farmers on his 43rd birthday. Check out Ramesh Bala's tweet here:

The money that has been donated will be processed by Agram Foundation, which Suriya had founded in 2006 to bring a significant change in the socio-economic status of the rural society in Tamil Nadu. We are indeed in awe of the actor, how about you?
