One of the best kept secrets of Vijay’s ‘Master’ is here. The actor, who is fondly called as ‘thalapathy’ by fans, is playing a college professor who is addicted to liquor in this film.
Sources say this is the reason behind Vijay’s confused and blurred look in the first look poster of the movie. They also point out that he was holding a liquor bottle in the subsequent looks of the film.
“An unexpected incident in his life makes him a drunkard. How he comes out of it and teaches a lesson to antagonist (Vijay Sethupathi) besides reforming his students form the crux of the movie,” sources add.
Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, the film has an ensemble of cast that includes Malavika Mohanan, Andrea Jeremiah, Gauri Kishan etc., apart from Vijay and Vijay Sethupathi. Music is by Anirudh Ravichander. The movie, which was supposed to hit the screens on April 9 ahead of Tamil New Year, could not do so because of the coronavirus lockdown.
