Vijay Sethupathi is touted as one of the superior actors in the South cinema. The Jawan star is gearing up for his upcoming movie Maharaja. During the promotional event, the actor got angry when he was questioned about male actors romancing “younger heroines”. Vijay said that the actresses can also say ‘no’.

According to a report in Indian Express.com, Vijay said, “I have spoken about it already. I acted with Krithi Shetty in Uppenna in 2021, and later, a director told me let’s approach her for another film as a heroine. I said no because I had asked her to consider me as a dad during the climax sequence of Uppenna. So, I said no.”

The ‘Merry Christmas’ star continued, “What if she had told me that she doesn’t want to act with me because ‘this man has asked me to consider him as dad’. She can say no also. I have answered this question earlier. Please leave it.”

Vijay Sethupathi’s milestone 50th movie, ‘Maharaja’ is all set for its theatrical release. Crafted by Nithilan Swaminathan, ‘Maharaja’ features a stellar cast including Anurag Kashyap, Mamta Mohandas, Abhirami, and more. B Ajaneesh Loknath lends his musical talents to the film as well, adding depth and emotion to the storytelling through his compositions.
