Vijay Sethupathi was shattered when Gully Boy went to the Oscars

In the movie Super Deluxe, Vijay Sethupathi essayed the role of a transgender woman. The movie was released in 2019 and the actor also received a National Award for the best supporting actor. At an event held by Bollywood Hungama, Vijay Sethupathi expressed that he was heartbroken when Super Deluxe couldn’t make its way to the Oscars.

Speaking about the same, the actor said, “I was shattered, but it’s politics. We know that something happened. It’s not because I was in that film. Even if I were not in that film, I would’ve wanted that film to go there. Something happened in between and I don’t want to talk about that. It’s unnecessary.”
