The video which is going viral on social media showcases a light-hearted conversation between Atlee and Kapil. During their conversation, Kapil asked Atlee, ‘Atlee sir, you’re so young, and yet you’ve become such a renowned producer and director. Has it ever happened that when you met a star for the first time, they didn’t realize you were Atlee and asked, ‘Where is Atlee?’
Atlee replied saying, ‘In a way, I understood your question. I’ll try to answer. I’m actually very thankful to AR Murugadoss, sir. Because he produced my first film. He asked for a script, but he didn’t see how I’m looking or whether I’m capable of it or not. But he loved my narration. I think the world should see that. By appearance we should not judge; by heart, you have to judge’. Within no time, Kapil’s question became a topic of discussion and some said that he took a dig at his appearance.
