As soon as Vijay read the script, he completely understood my vision and approach towards the film."

While I was searching for the lead in B-Town I also started looking in other alternate industries and that's how I came across Vijay Sethupathi. His acting skills, style statement, vocal dynamism is stupendous and that's when I felt I found my lead star. He is not only prodigious in his work but a very down-to-earth and anti propagandist star, who can break barriers of his image for his films. I am really excited to work with him and start my dream project as soon as possible." the director added with immense excitement.
