Veteran Tamil actor Sivakumar celebrated his 85th birthday on October 27, prompting his younger son, actor Karthi, to post a rare monochrome childhood photograph.
Karthi accompanied the throwback image with a heartfelt birthday message praising his father's discipline, integrity, and career standards.
Sivakumar debuted in the 1965 film Kaakum Karangal and built a prolific career across hundreds of films and television serials alongside his actor sons Suriya and Karthi.
