As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for trends and a heart for stories, I must say that Vijay Sethupathi continues to impress me not just with his acting prowess but also with his selfless approach towards his craft. The success of Maharaja is a testament to the power of good storytelling and the actor’s ability to immerse himself completely into his roles.
Following the outstanding success of his latest film, Maharaja, at the box office, it appears that Vijay Sethupathi has been on a winning streak. This captivating movie, with its compelling narrative, has resonated deeply with audiences, earning them widespread praise. According to recent reports, Maharaja has already grossed more than 100 crores at the box office. Interestingly, it’s been shared that Vijay Sethupathi chose not to take a salary for his role in Maharaja.
Has Vijay Sethupathi given up on charging salary for Maharaja?
In June this year, under the guidance of Nithilan Swaminathan, I had the pleasure of following the production of the Netflix-starrer Maharaja. As per multiple sources, this film was made on a tight budget of approximately Rs. 20 crore. To keep costs down even further, it’s rumored that Vijay Sethupathi graciously waived any payment for his role in the movie.
For those unfamiliar with the situation, due to this arrangement, the actor will now share a portion of the film’s earnings.
Vijay Sethupathi broke down to tears while shooting one particular scene in Maharaja
During an interview with Times Now, the actor playing Vikram Vedha revealed a personal connection to one specific scene from his movie Maharaja. He explained that he became quite emotional while filming this scene because he could fully immerse himself in the character’s mindset, as the character was recalling a burglary that occurred in his own home.
While genuinely weeping during his dialogue delivery, Vijay explained, “In truth, it was only when I told the third story to the police that I lost composure. The first two times I shared the story, I managed to hold back my emotions. However, the third time, when the memory surfaced, the tears were genuine.”
