Tamil actor Vijay Sethupathi, who is popularly addressed as Makkal Selvan, made his OTT series debut earlier this year with the critically acclaimed Hindi web series Farzi. It starred Shahid Kapoor alongside him in the lead role. However, the talented actor had yet to appear in a Tamil series. That is going to change soon as OTT platform Disney+Hotstar just dropped information on their latest upcoming Hotstar specials and it will star Vijay Sethupathi.
National Award-winning director M Manikandan will be helming the yet untitled project. The director has already worked with Vijay Sethupathi twice, collaborating on the films Aandavan Kattalai and Kadaisi Vivasayi. Both were critically acclaimed and hence fans are excited about the new project. The filming for the web series started on April 1 along with a puja ceremony at Usilampatti, Tamil Nadu. Vijay Sethupathi has shared a photo of the cast and crew from the launch of the web series where we see all donning traditional attire with garlands around their neck. Watch the photo here.
