Legendary actor Kamal Hassan is arriving with a film named ‘Vikram’ on 3rd June. This film is directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj who delivered hits like ‘Khaidi’ and ‘Master’. Apart from Kamal, versatile actors Vijay Sethupathi and Fahadh Fasil are also a part of this gangster drama. Kamal Hassan officially confirmed that star hero Suriya will be seen in a special cameo. The star cast itself should be enough to create an enormous buzz on this movie. But it is not the case with ‘Vikram’ in Telugu states.
While the trailer looked impressive, most of the audience are unaware of the release date. Usually, Kamal Hassan’s films release with a lot of buzz but it is not the reality with Vikram. As we know, the last few films of Kamal Hassan ended up being failures at the box office. He took ‘Vikram’ very seriously and started promoting it aggressively in Tamil Nadu and Hindi. He went Cannes Film Festival and even attended the popular ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ for promotions. But the team is not at all focusing on the Telugu market which is vital for Tamil films. What is more amusing is the fact that only Kamal Hassan is promoting the film while the rest of the cast are not at all taking part in it.
Die-hard fans of Kamal Hassan in the Telugu states are a bit worried about the lack of buzz and promotions for ‘Vikram’. The movie’s unit organized a pre-release event but even that failed to generate the buzz. As a desperate attempt at raising the buzz, the makers released the first look of Suriya from the film. As we know, Suriya has a huge craze in Telugu states. Irrespective of the result, his movies perform well. Let us see if it helps ‘Vikram’ in any way or not.
