Karthi gives the real reason why he did not act in ‘Vikram’ and only gave voiceover

Karthi one of the few actors in Tamil cinema who has the ability to carry any type of role and also experiments with every film he accepts both in intense and commercial projects.  Currently he is also on a career high having delivered two back to back blockbuster hits ‘Sulthan’ and ‘Viruman’.

Karthi’s voice also was heard as ‘Dhilli’ in Kamal Haasan’s ‘Vikram’ directed by Lokesh Kangaraj.  Fans felt that he could have appeared on screen that would have given his fans an elation equal to what his elder brother Suriya recieved for his cameo as ‘Rolex’ in the climax of the all time blockbuster hit film.

Karthi during a recent press interaction stated that when his cameo was required for ‘Vikram’ he sported long hair due to him playing the character Vandhiythevan in Man Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan’.  Since the shooting was not yet over he couldnt cut his hair to suit his ‘Kaithi’ character “Dhilli” and thats why he did not make an onscreen appearance.

Karthi has confirmed recently that in 2023 he and Lokesh Kanagaraj will reunite for ‘Kaithi 2’ once the director completes ‘Thalapathy 67’ starring Vijay.  His next release is ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ on September 30th followed by ‘Sardar’ which will be a grand Diwali attraction.
