South cinema sensation Vijay Sethupathi is stealing headlines with ‘Slumdog-33 Temple Road’, his highly anticipated flick directed by the maverick Puri Jagannath. No confirmed release yet, but June is the rumored month, keeping audiences on the edge.
Sethupathi marked a special occasion by wishing Puri Jagannath on his 26-year anniversary in filmmaking. From the sets, he dropped unseen snaps showing the duo deep in discussion—Puri explaining a shot in low-light conditions, showcasing their on-set rapport.
In his caption, the actor gushed, ‘This great man’s journey has been phenomenal. 26 years represent not merely a milestone but a testament to bravery, conviction, and bold expression in cinema.’ Adding personal touches, he noted, ‘Puri sir, collaborating on ‘Slumdog-33 Temple Road’ was pure joy. You inspire actors to break boundaries with such ease. This one will hold a special place in our hearts.’
Back in January, the teaser poster dropped jaws: Sethupathi, sword in hand, surrounded by money bags, face smeared with blood for that raw, menacing look. Meanwhile, the actor’s plate is full—he’s currently shooting for ‘Farzi Season 2’ opposite Shahid Kapoor, set to stream on Amazon Prime shortly after March commencement.
Puri’s decades-long legacy of high-octane dramas continues to evolve, and Sethupathi’s endorsement underscores the film’s potential as a game-changer. Stay tuned for more updates as production wraps up.
