Watch: Netizens question why this scene got deleted from Master

The makers of Vijay-Vijay Sethupathi starrer ‘Master’ have released a deleted scene online. It is a four-minute long scene that should have ideally come right after the intro fight and ‘Vaathi Coming’ song. Ever since its release last day, netizens are wondering why such an important scene got removed from the film.

Vijay is seen delivering relevant dialogues like a how a woman should not be judged based on her dress and how it doesn’t invite rape. Though the scenes have a lecture-like done and are slightly patronising, the fact that a big star like Vijay is delivering it means that the message would reach out to a wide audience. It is also a reparation of sorts by the actor, who himself has delivered regressive dialogues about a woman’s dressing in films like ‘Sivakasi’.

‘Master’ directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj hit screens on January 13. Despite the pandemic situation and crowd restrictions in theatres, the film emerged as a huge blockbuster. The film is currently streaming in Amazon Prime Video. Even after the OTT release, it is still running in few theatres in Tamil Nadu.
