Chinese Industry has been competition and Master has easily surpassed its movies. While the film A Little Red Flower collected 82.5 crores globally, Shock Wave 2 earned mere 59 crores. Now that’s a huge win for Indian box office and ray of hope for its future.

Meanwhile, Vijay Sethupathi will soon be seen in a silent Bollywood film titled Gandhi Talks.
The film is written, directed and produced by Kishor Pandurang Belekar, while Divay Dhamijain is on board as a creative producer.
“This project has been very close to my heart and when the actor himself relates to the idea and same emotions, it is really a boon for the director. For me Vijay Sethupathi is that actor who can justify this challenging script with his performance. As soon as Vijay read the script, he completely understood my vision and approach towards the film,” said Belekar.
“Every director is looking for certain types of characteristics in his actors. While I was searching for the lead in B-Town, I also started looking in alternate industries and that’s how I came across Vijay Sethupathi. His acting skills, style statement, and vocal dynamism are stupendous and that’s when I felt I found my lead star,” the filmmaker added.
