As Vijay Sethupathi’s character Dheena in the movie Edhiri – The Karuna Episode, a re-enactment of the Yuddha Kanda from the Hindu epic Ramayana , some rough scenes were very different for a Tamil film casted with actors who are known to play light-hearted roles. Throughout the scene where Dheena is murdering someone, Nambiar had instructed Vijay to display an intense look on his face to make it appear more aggressive towards its victim. When Benoy later approached Vijay Sethupathi, he conveyed that he appreciated his suggestions immediately after they finished filming the scene and said to him, “Whatever you suggested was good for the film.”
