Harish Uthaman played a vital character in Vijay's Bairavaa, directed by Bharathan. According to a scene, Harish had to beat Vijay. In a recent interview with Behindwoods, Harish shared the experience of shooting that scene, and the response he got from the fans.
He said, "During the shooting, Anal Arasu master warned me that no one can beat Vijay sir, and you are going to do that on screen. He asked me to be careful. It made me more nervous and didn't know what to do. After the movie released, the fans on social media threatened me and started to ask, 'en thalapathy melaye kai vechutiya'.
I asked him to tell his place, and I would go there and explain him. Then after that, I clarified and made him understand that it is just a film. Vijay sir, as a human, is a very big inspiration for me, and who'd like to hit a man like him? So, I explained them all these, and they were okay by then. They understood the reason.
I should also tell Bairavaa is an important film in my career. The film helped to increase my mileage and visibility among the common public. Sharing screen space with Vijay sir is something that is very special and a big chance for a budding actor like me. I am now being spotted by the people, and the main reason forthat, is Bairavaa."
