Vijay is one of the finest people in the industry, says Kaththi villain

Neil Nitin Mukesh, who plays antagonist in Kaththi, is all praise for Ilayathalapathy. “Vijay is one of the finest people in the industry. I still can’t believe he’s a superstar because he never behaves like one. He is always humble and very friendly. He’s supportive and very encouraging. I feel really lucky to have Vijay and Murugadoss as a team to work with in my Tamil debut,” says the Kaththi villain.

When quizzed about this role in the film, he says, “It’s not a typical villain role you see in the South. I play an extremely polished character, a north Indian who speaks Tamil, well read and foreign-returned. As a villain, I don’t fight the hero with physical power, but with intelligence.” Kaththi is slated for Diwali release.
