He highlighted how words can get sensationalised to serve headlines, with terms like ‘rejections’ being used.He wrote, “I genuinely enjoy conversations around cinema and the many layers that go into making a film. That said, I’ve often refrained from putting myself out there because, at times, words get selectively lifted, misquoted or sensationalised to serve headlines rather than the craft. It’s unfortunate that instead of the conversation staying on the song and the creative intent behind Shararat, the focus has shifted to comparisons between two wonderful artists, with strong and reductive terms like “rejections” being used – something that was never the spirit of what was shared.”

Vijay: Tamannaah Bhatia Was Never Under Consideration Because…

Further, he revealed why Tamannaah Bhatia was not under consideration for Shararat song. He stated, “Cinema is collaborative. It thrives on respect, nuance and context. I hope we can keep the spotlight where it belongs – on the work and the many people who pour their hearts into it.

This choice was about protecting the film’s atmosphere and ensuring the narrative remains the hero of the sequence.”
