Ilayathapathy Vijay surely knows how to silence his critics. For, in the midst of controversy surrounding his upcoming film Kaththi , he spoke his mind out at the audio launch of the film. “I’m also Tamilian and I’ve worked here only,” he said, “All of you know the kind of trouble we underwent while making the film. I don’t usually talk much. But I can say that while I may not be thyagi (martyr), I’m not a drohi (traitor).”
The audio launch was held amidst a lot of security concerns. There have been allegations that the production company had business links with the Sri Lankan President, something that the makers have vehemently denied.
Kaththi , which is slated to release this Deepavali, also stars Samantha and Neil Nitin Mukesh. It has been directed by A.R. Murugadoss of Ghajini fame.
