He looks like a normal guy. He never shows off his starry tantrums. He appears simple. But something inside him made him different.
Any actor has to struggle for years to make a mark as a performer. But that 'something' in him made him an award winning performer within no time.
He was an accountant in a Chennai based theatre group. He was not into acting but kept on observing the actors closely. Sometimes he acted like a padding artiste and sometimes as the friend of a hero in some movies.
Eventually in the year 2010 he appeared in Thenmerku Paruvakaatru that brought him some identity. His appearance in Pizza made some difference to his fame.
But when he acted as a transgender in Super Delux, he became an award winning actor.
He has no inhibitions, no tantrums but has only hard work and modesty. That brought him 50 films in his filmography.
It is needless to say that the presence of Vijay Sethupathi has brought some good collections to Uppena. His recent appearance in Master also brought him enough of fame.
Vijay Sethupathi has become the darling of Southern screen taking a share from Prakash Raj. There is a long way to go for him.
