Vijay Sethupathi’s inclusion into the show came after Kamal Haasan had decided to take a break from hosting this season. In a statement released by the actor earlier, he specified that he would be stepping away from the show after 7 years of hosting it due to commitments in various films.
The actor even expressed his gratitude towards the viewers who have loved his presence on the small screen ever since he started hosting the show. Moreover, even though the actor had specified this as a break, it is unclear when he will be back to hosting the same.
With Kamal Haasan taking a break, the showrunners decided to replace him with Vijay Sethupathi which was earlier specified in various reports. Earlier, Silmabarasan TR had also stepped in to host the OTT spin-off of Bigg Boss as well due to Haasan’s busy schedule with Vikram shoot.
Coming to Vijay Sethupathi’s work front, the actor was last seen this year in the movie Maharaja, directed by Nithilan Swaminathan. The film featured the actor as a barbershop owner who lives with his daughter as a single father. The duo also has a special affliction to Lakshmi, a steel garbage bin that saved the latter’s life one day.
However, things take a turn when the bin goes missing after a robbery at his home. Now, the man tries to seek the help of police to find his missing bin, revealing much more dark details. The actor is next set to appear in the movie Ace as well.
On the other hand, Kamal Haasan, who was last seen in Indian 2, is currently shooting for the film Thug Life, directed by Mani Ratnam. Moreover, the actor will also be seen in the sequel movie Indian 3, which is likely to be released in 2025.
