Reports have emerged that Vetrimaaran has approached Vijay Sethupathi to play a character in his new film starring Soori as the protagonist.

Vaadivaasal is adopted from the novel of the same name, which Vetrimaaran in an interview has said was the dream project of his guru director Balu Mahendra.

The displeasure about Hindi imposition fumed with the introduction of 3-language policy in the National Education Policy (NEP 2020).

The national award winning director's confession gains a lot of traction as it comes after DMK's Rajya Sabha MP Kanimozhi decried a similar discrimination against her at the Chennai airport.
