As soon as it was shared, it left the netizens excited. There were many who could not stop themselves from commenting on how fit the actor was. A person wrote, “Really, is he 67?,” while another one wrote, “Much fitter than several younger actors.” Another user commented, “He is the fittest actor in India, doesn’t need a six-pack.” 

There were many who pointed out that what he was doing was not exactly a push. Responding to the same, a fan wrote, “People who are criticizing these push-ups calling it that this not how it’s done are ignorant. He is pumping, people who regularly exercise can do this for a quick pump that’s all. He can’t do a whole proper push-up routine and get tired before the scene.”

Coming back to the film, it is helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, ‘Vikram’ features Kamal Haasan, Vijay Sethupathi and Fahadh Faasil in lead roles. Actors Chemban Vinod Jose, Kalidas Jayaram, Antony Varghese, Narain, Antony Varghese and Arjun Das also star in the film in supporting roles.

Haasan plays the role of an agent working for RAW, Arun Kumar. He is at times brutal and ruthless with criminals. Vijay Sethupathi plays the antagonist in the movie.
