Ace kollywood actor Sathyan who has impressed everyone with his studious student role in Nanban will now share screen space with Vijay for yet another flick. "I play an important role in Thupaki. It is a delight to work with Vijay again. My thanks to director AR Murugadoss and the Ilayathalapathy," says the actor, who earlier played Vijay's friend 'Vettaikaran'.

 

"Though I am playing Vijay's friend in Thupaki once again, the role is totally different from the ones I did in the past. And I signed this film much before Nanban hit the screens," says Sathyan, who is a close relative to Sathyaraj. "In fact, when I was shooting for Nanban, the associate producers of Thupaki watched me performing on the sets and recommended my name to Murugadoss. The director paid heed to their suggestion and roped me in," said Sathyan.
