Vijay's Mersal has been creating all sorts of records from even before its release. The film's internet fans have been supporting it immensely, be it any social media.
The latest record achieved by Mersal on the internet is that its teaser has just overtaken Superstar Rajinikanth's Kabali film teaser as the most watched in India on YouTube.
The numbers as of November 16:
Kabali: 34,582,666 views
Mersal: 34,608,716 views
Finally, we have some exciting news for Vijay fans about Thalapathy 62. Most people will know that the film is still in its pre-production stage. We are told that AR Murugadoss is currently in Bangalore, busy tightening up the script and simultaneously setting up his team for Thalapathy 62.
Contrary to the rumours, Vijay might not be playing dual roles in Thalapathy 62, and apparently, it is also not a double hero subject. But what we got to know is that the film will have one extremely strong villain like most AR Murugadoss films. It will have a social content which will be robust and different.
What is more interesting is that Vijay might be playing his age or close to his age, say a 35+ old man. In both Thuppakki and Kaththi, we had seen a more stylish and vibrant Vijay, but since he would be playing 35+ in Thalapathy 62, the treatment will be different.
