Actor Vishnuu Vishal has shared a moment he describes as one of the most special in his career so far. Taking to social media, the actor revealed that he received a call from Rajinikanth, who had watched Gatta Kusthi 2 and was full of praise for the film and its performances.
Quoting the superstar’s words, Vishnuu wrote, “Semma padam. Romba jolly aana entertainer.. Indha madhri padam ippo ellam varadhe illa.. Romba nalla perform panirkeenga. Aishwarya Lekshmi um, nalla performance. Kutty Zara papa, epdi pudicheenga. She was just BRILLIANT. Vishnu, ungalukku nalla script sense iruku.. Innum nalla padangal neraiya kudunga. (It was a really great film. A jolly entertainer. Films like these are rare these days. You have performed very well. Aishwarya Lekshmi has also performed well. How did you find little Zara? She was just brilliant. You have a great script sense, Vishnu. Do more good films).”
The endorsement from Rajinikanth, whose approval continues to carry immense weight within the Tamil film industry, has clearly struck a chord with Vishnuu. Sharing his excitement, the actor added, “Absolutely elated and excited to recieve a call from the one and only SUPERSTAR RAJINIKANTH sir, after he watched Gatta Kusthi 2 the best part of the journey was in getting this call from him.. His words – a major motivation for the journey ahead.. Thank you sir!”
For an actor who has steadily built his career by balancing commercial entertainers with content-driven films, this moment marks both validation and encouragement to push further.
Carrying forward a crowd-pleasing franchise
Gatta Kusthi 2 serves as a continuation of the 2023 film Gatta Kusthi, bringing back the characters of Veera and Keerthi, played by Vishnuu Vishal and Aishwarya Lekshmi respectively. The sequel expands on the dynamic that made the first film popular, particularly its playful subversion of traditional gender roles.
Set against a backdrop that blends sports drama with social commentary, the film follows Veera and Keerthi as they navigate married life while dealing with societal expectations that often clash with their unconventional equation. The narrative retains the first film’s lighthearted tone while exploring how the couple adjusts to evolving circumstances.
The film also introduces child actor Zara, whose performance has drawn particular attention, including from Rajinikanth himself. Her presence adds an emotional layer to the narrative, complementing the film’s comedic and dramatic elements.
Produced by Vishnuu Vishal, Gatta Kusthi 2 reflects his growing interest in backing projects that align with his sensibilities as both an actor and storyteller. The praise from a figure like Rajinikanth not only underscores the film’s appeal but also highlights Vishnuu’s evolving script choices.
With the film continuing to find its audience, the actor now has the added boost of a personal endorsement from one of Indian cinema’s most iconic stars, a moment that could well shape the trajectory of his upcoming projects.
