Leading Tamil actor Jayam Ravi is scaling new peaks these days with the stunning success of Ponniyin Selvan: 2, which has crossed 100 crores gross at the worldwide box office in the first two days of its release. With the epic historical action adventure film set to become yet another memorable blockbuster in Tamil cinema, the actor recently took part in a special fans festival organized by Galatta Media, which also saw his family members, including his wife Aarti Ravi grace the grand occasion.
At the Jayam Ravi fans festival, Aarti went on to explain the big efforts the actor had taken to support her during the pregnancy of her first son, Aarav. She said, "Actually, when Aarav was born, he (Jayam Ravi) wasn't here in the city. He had planned to be here, but my delivery happened much earlier. He was in Paris at the time. So, Aarav was born when he wasn't here. It is very special to everybody, but as a wife, I understand his job. During pregnancy, when I was sick, he would catch my vomit in his hands when I vomited. He's done so many such things for me. He would stay by my side. Be it at 3 a.m. or 4 a.m., if I said I wanted to eat something, he would get up." She added, "I wouldn't think about his shooting schedules the next day. When I say I want it at that time, he'd come and get it for me. He'll go back to sleep at 5 a.m. and then head for the shooting. So, as a husband, I will say that he's more than a 100 percent. I always wish that everyone must be like him as a husband. And, this trait has come to him from his father. I've seen how his parents are. I often used to think that we should be like them. I would tell my father that he's made it to 80 percent. My father would then say, 'He'll become 100 percent when he gets to my age."
