Selvaraghavan was born in a Tamil family to film director Kasthuri Raja and Vijayalakshmi. He has a brother, Dhanush, an actor, and two sisters, who are both doctors. Afflicted with Retinoblastoma, a cancer of the retina, an eye of Selva had to be removed so the cancer wouldn’t spread and “7G” maker makes public appearances wearing glasses.

Now, while completing a challenge in Instagram through which he had to write a note to his younger self, Selvaraghavan decided to write a letter to his 14 year old self to provide him the courage he needed the most at that age. In his post, Selvaraghavan revealed how the world laughed at him for the way he looked at that age. The filmmaker said that wherever he went at that age, people stared at him or mocked him for the lack of an eye.
The filmmaker made it public that he cried every night about it. He said that he even asked the God why he took his eye. “Every night you cry about it. Sometimes ask God “why me? Why did you take my eye?” he wrote in his post. Further he went on to console the young lad by saying what will happen in 10 years. He gave the younger Selva the courage he needs by saying that he is going to direct a blockbuster hit film which is going to change his life forever. He said that the same world will look at him, not to mock but to respect and admire him. He further added that the world will see a man who made changes in their lives with his movies.

“So dear boy. Be brave. If God takes something precious from you he will give it back to you in abundance. So cheer up. Smile for photographs (I’m not able to find a single one of you smiling) because in the years to come there will be many pictures being taken of you!
Love yourself, Director Selvaraghavan (age 45)” his post further read.
