When
Vijay
Sethupathi
Got
Rejected
For
Junior
Artist
Role
Ahead
of
the
release
of
Mani
Ratnam's
Chekka
Chivantha
Vaanam,
Vijay
Sethupathi
revealed
that
he
once
got
rejected
for
a
junior
artist's
role.
Speaking
about
the
incident,
Vijay
Sethupathi
told
The
News
Minute,
"I
am
unable
to
believe
how
I've
travelled
in
cinema
thus
far
--
from
an
ordinary
guy
to
--
this
stage.
I
was
even
rejected
for
a
junior
artiste
role."

Sethupathi
On
His
Unbelievable
Journey
In
an
interview
with
TNM,
Vijay
stated
that
his
focus
was
not
on
being
a
star
but
to
be
a
complete
actor.
He
said,
"I
don't
even
know
if
I
am
worth
the
love
of
people.
I
don't
focus
on
being
a
star.
I
think
stardom
is
just
a
perception
of
people.
Also,
when
I
do
a
role,
I
become
the
character.
Natural
acting
is
what
I've
done
on
screen.
I
have
never
shied
away
from
experimenting
with
multiple
characters.
Never
did
I
opt
for
any
particular
style."
