Karthi on Suriya’s Character in Vikram: ”I Saw Him as a Villain a Long Time Ago”
Suriya and Karthi are Tamil star brothers who have made a name for themselves in the film industry. Suriya had to face criticism for his acting in his earlier films, but he later became one of the top Tamil actors. Karthi also made his debut in the film world with Paruthiveeran, directed by Aamir, and made his mark in a short span of time.
Vikram, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, has ushered in a new cinematic universe in Tamil. Suriya’s role as Rolex at the end of the film was celebrated in a big way. With the reference to Karthi’s Kaiti in Vikram, it is certain that the two will come face to face in the next film of this universe. Karthi’s words on the role of Rolex are now viral on social media.
Karthi said that he was not told much about the character in the film Vikram, and Suriya gave only a little hint. But after watching the film, Karthi added that he understood that it was such a role and when he saw him on screen with a knife, he felt that it was on a different level. However, Karthi said that many people are seeing the evilness of Suriya now, and he grew up watching him from a young age.

‘Like everyone else, I loved the role of Rolex. I was just told, “Lokesh called, there’s a small program.” I realized that’s the case when I saw the film. The delivery of that knife and the delivery of the subsequent dialogue were on a different level when I saw it in the theater.’
A lot of people ask me in interviews, how did you feel when you saw Suriya as a villain for the first time? It just feels fresh when you see the evilness of Bully. I grew up watching him since childhood. Rolex hasn’t even reached half that level,” Karthi said.
