Vijay is no alien to films which feature him in dual roles. In his last film with Atlee, namely Bigil (2019), he essayed the role of a young footballer and his gangster father. In Mersal (2017), Vijay went a step further and appeared in a triple role. In the AR Murugadoss film Kaththi (2014), Vijay plays the role of a petty thief Kathiresan as well as his lookalike Jeevanantham who has a deep past.
