Karthi known for his unique balancing of mass and class roles has delivered a hattrick of blockbuster hits with 'Sulthan', 'Viruman' and 'Ponniyin Selvan'. His swashbuckling performance as Vanthiyathevan in Mani Ratnam's magnum opus 'PS-1' has recieved widespread praise from both critics and fans alike.

Karthi has penned special thank you notes to both the legends on Twitter. He wrote to the Superstar “Rajini sir, A call from you is extremely special. Your courtesy to reach out to others to appreciate their work and the joy that you give us is always endearing. Thank you sir. Lots of love and respects"

To the Ulaganayagan his hearty words were "Kamal sir you have always inspired us to seek bigger goals and set higher standards in cinema but more importantly you have taught us to love & respect one another and how to express that in these moments. Lots of love and respects."
