Dhanush's latest release 'Karnan' has not only gained widespread critical acclaim but also has been well received by fans who have made it a blockbuster hit in spite of the mandatory fifty percent occupancy in theaters due to COVID 19. Mari Selvaraj's intense screenplay and direction have earned him his second consecutive successful film after 'Pariyerum Perumal'.

In 'Karnan', cinematographer turned actor Natty Natraj plays the villainous cop Kannapiran who tries to decimate an entire village due to his upper-caste ego. The actor has portrayed the character so effectively that fans have started scolding him in theaters as well as on social media.

Natty has taken to Twitter to request fans not to scold him and send hate messages on his cellphone explaining that he has only acted as the cold-blooded character. He has also thanked fans who have appreciated his performance.
