Vijay Setupathi to play the villain in Rajinikanth’s next with Karthik Subbaraj?
Last week, Sun Pictures took everyone by surprise by announcing their new movie with superstar Rajinikanth. One of Kollywood’s most talented filmmakers, Karthik Subbaraj is helming this high profile project. The director being a huge Rajinikanth fan himself is certain to come up with a quality film for his idol.
Latest buzz is that Karthik has approached Vijay Setupathi to play the villain role in this movie. Such rumours are quite normal whenever a big project is announced but the possibility of this one materializing cannot be dismissed as such. There is a slight credibility to the speculations, considering the fact that Vijay Setupathi is very close to Karthik Subbaraj.
The actor has been a part of Karthik’s all three movies – Pizza, Jigarthanda and Iraivi. If Karthik manages to get Vijay Setupathi to play the baddie opposite Rajinikanth, it will be nothing short of a treat for movie lovers. The former’s grey-shaded villany act in Vikram Vedha was widely appreciated and won him a lot of fans. All we can do now is to hope that a Vijay Sethupathi-Rajinikanth face off really happens, on-screen.
Meanwhile, director Karthik Subbaraj and his team is busy with the process of finalizing the supporting cast and crew. Shoot for the movie will be commencing by May and the makers have plans to wrap it up by the end of this year.
