The Academy, on Tuesday, announced that it is inviting 397 artists across the world to join the Oscars Panel 2022. Along with Suriya, some of the exceptional talents of Indian cinema including Bollywood actress Kajol, filmmaker Reema Kagti, documentary maker Rintu Thomas, and others have been invited to join the panel.

To the unversed, two of Suriya's recent outings, Soorarai Pottru and Jai Bhim had garnered attention on the Oscars platform in the past. Coming to the actor's career graph, he is now consciously taking a different route with script selection and selecting some socially-relevant subjects along with commercial potboilers. The talented actor will next be seen in Vaadivaasal, the period drama helmed by Vetrimaaran.
