Actors are often known to get affected by certain characters or scenes that they play on screen, which is precisely what happened to him, by his own admission. Vijay talked about a particular scene in Master that disturbed him and left him concerned. He revealed that the scene in Master in which he had two kill two kids left him “worried”, as he wanted to make sure that the violence and the evil act by his character would not be “anything but disturbing” for the audience.
He also said that he believes that it is the responsibility of the cinema to make sure that it does not “glorify evil”. He further elaborated that he, along with director Lokesh Kanagraj, made sure that they don’t make his character Bhavani look “attractive” in any sense. Vijay also added that playing violent characters is rather distressing for him, as it feels like he is cleaning his house and “throwing all the dirt outside”.
Vijay Sethupathi had struggled for a long time before finally getting his first major role in 2010 in the film Thenmerku Paruvakaatru. He has acted in several hit films since then, playing different characters that are predominantly negative in nature.
