Suriya to Vijay Sethupathi: Tamil actors who turned producers!

Tamil film industry has been welcoming not only actors, but also directors and producers over the years. Given the choice, many Tamil stars have taken the opportunity to start their own production and distribution house to produce films. We can say that though not many actors are producers, a few have come forward to support the films they believe in. On March 2, director Hari started his own production house and taking a trip down the memory lane, here are a few actors who own a production house.
