Vijay Antony’s elder daughter Meera was found dead on September 19 at just 16 years old after she committed suicide from hanging from the ceiling fan of her room. The real reason behind her actions is yet to be discovered by the officials, however fans are in utter shock to witness her father-actor Vijay Antony back on the sets of his upcoming film ‘Raththam.’ As soon as the pictures of the star were shared by the producer of the film on X (formerly known as Twitter), fans pointed out the fact that it's just been 10 days.

On September 29, producer G Dhananjeyan took to X and shared a series of pictures from his promotional interview for his upcoming film Raththam which starred Vijay Antony in the lead role. Sharing the pictures he wrote, “True example of professionalism, care for his Producers & Audience by @vijayantony sir - supporting our film #Raththam by being a part of promotional interviews with @csamudhan @ @Mahima_Nambiar today to various channels. A great inspiration & benchmark for the industry, by the man who rises above his personal tragedy to support his Team . Thank you sir.”

Several fans praised the actor for his brave step by returning to work, while some thought that it was too early. One tweet read, “Sir totally respect your good intentions, but when there’s so much stress on the need for mental health, we shouldn’t glorify people working or having to work through unimaginably painful personal losses. Nothing in life is as important as what he’s going through now.”

In his note he wrote, “My Daughter Meera is such an affectionate and brave girl. She is now in a better and peaceful place where there won't be caste, creed, money, jealousy, pain.
