Vijay Sethupathi Opts Out Of Kamal Haasan-Fahadh Faasil’s Vikram?

Kamal Haasan's next with Master director Lokesh Kanagaraj titled Vikram is indeed one of the highly anticipated films. Touted to be an out-and-out actioner, the film recently made headlines for the inclusion of multiple talented actors including Fahadh Faasil, Vijay Sethupathi and Narain. Well now, as the actors' fans eagerly wait to witness the film on the big screen, what has come as a big disappointment is a buzz about Sethupathi's exit from Vikram.

If reports are anything to go by, the actor has decided to walk out of the film owing to date issues. Reportedly, Vijay has 20+ projects in his kitty and accommodating Vikram to his tight schedule, seemed impossible and therefore the actor decided to opt out of the project. Rumours are also rife that the star was not happy with the remuneration offered by the team, and so rejected the film before its shoot commenced.
