Vijay Sethupathi’s 50th film has turned out to be a huge hit within a week of its release. To celebrate this achievement, the team of Maharaja organised a thanksgiving meet in Chennai. The entire team looked extremely happy as they enjoyed the tremendous response their film is receiving in theatres.
During a Thanksgiving meet in Chennai, Sethupathi dropped a truth bomb, sending cinema lovers into a frenzy.
Vijay Sethupathi revealed a big truth at the Maharaja event
During the press meet, Vijay Sethupathi revealed that during the release of one of his recent films, someone told him that it was pointless to put up banners for the actor in theatres as the audience would no longer come for him.
Sethupathi further added that he is happy that Maharaja is the answer to all those questions. At the event, the actor’s fans went crazy hearing his answers. However, he chose not to reveal the name of the film during the discussion this time too.
A few days ago, in an interview with Hindustan Times, Tamil cinema’s Makkal Selvan had expressed his disappointment about the promotional phase of one of his recent projects.
Additionally, Sethupathi expressed concern that he felt Maharaja would perform average or above average at the box office, as his previous films had not performed well.
Also, Secretary of Tamil Journalists Association, RS Karthik was present at the event, and he shared an unknown fact with the audience, saying that during the COVID-19 pandemic, Ajith Sir and Vijay Sethupathi Sir helped him the most.
This revelation created a stir in the air, leaving fans of both Thala and Makkal Selvan elated.
