Renowned Tamil actor Vijay Sethupathi will be a part of Aamir Khan's much awaited film Laal Singh Chaddha. In an interview with Film Companion, Manoj Bajpayee confirmed the news. Sethupathi during the interaction spoke how language and culture are his major fears. But also further said that language can still be learnt but culture is important as that helps one connect with the audience.

“Anyone can learn the language easily, culture is very important. Only through culture, we can connect with the audience. If you go to Saudi Arabia and work there for 6 months, you can learn Arabic also. Language is not a big barrier, but the main thing is that I should know the culture,” Vijay said.
