The exceedingly versatile Vijay Sethupathi, unrecognizable in every character that he assumes, spoke about his debut in Hindi with me during an exclusive interview.

Without beating around the bush , when I asked him about his Hindi debut he replied, “Yes, I am doing a Hindi film with Sriram Raghavan. But my decision to accept the offer had nothing to do with the language.I met Sriram and I loved the subject that he narrated to me. That’s it. The language is the least important reason for my selection of a role. The spoken word is only an expression of the character’s personality’s soul. It’s a tool of communication and nothing more.”

About his webseries , the stunning actor says, “Again it was the subject. I love what (co-directors) Raj and DK do on screen. I wanted to be part this . It doesn’t matter if it is a feature film or a webseries, I believe my steps as an actor are guided by some power much greater than me.”
