Chiyaan Vikram, a Tamil actor, recently clarified his stance on Anurag Kashyap’s claims that he did not respond to him when he reached out to him for the film Kennedy. Kashyap had revealed that the character Kennedy was written with Vikram in mind, but he never responded. Vikram took to Twitter to clarify that he had called Kashyap over a year ago and explained how he “hadn’t gotten any mail or message from the filmmaker.” He also wished Kashyap great times ahead and signed off as Chiyaan Vikram aka Kennedy.
Here is the tweet:
Dear @anuragkashyap72 ,
Just revisiting our conversation from over a year ago for the sake of our friends and well wishers on social media. When I heard from another actor that you had tried to reach me for this film & that you felt I hadn’t responded to you, I called you myself immediately and explained that I hadn’t gotten any mail or msg from you as the mail id that you had contacted me on was no longer active and my number had changed almost 2 years before that.
As I said during that phone call, I’m very excited for your film Kennedy and even more so because it has my name.
I wish you great times ahead.
Lots of love
Chiyaan Vikram
aka Kennedy
The film Kennedy, starring Sunny Leone and Rahul Bhat, will be showcased under the Midnight Screenings section of the Cannes Film Festival 2023. Anurag Kashyap had earlier revealed that he only cast people who are totally available and who will give everything. He did not write Kennedy for Rahul Bhat. He had a specific actor in mind when he wrote the script, which is why the film was called Kennedy Project. It was Chiyaan Vikram. His real name is Kennedy (Kennedy John Victor). However, Vikram clarified that he did not receive any email or message from Kashyap.
Fans React To Vikram’s Clarification
Fans are quite happy that Vikram has put out a clarification. A Twitter user commented, “What a man #ChiyaanVikram you’re just great ..! The tweet that I’ve been waiting for..!”
Another wrote, “Now i feel bad for doubting you and i now understand that there’s always other side of the story when attention seeking person like anurag is speaking..he brought u down for a movie promotion.”
