Vijay Sethupathi’s entry to mainstream films came in the later part of last decade. From his first success of Pizza, he has been known for his versatile roles. The roles which he selects are close to reality. Maybe that’s why he earned the title Makkal Selvan (The People’s Favourite).

Here is a list of Sethupathi’s comedy films. The roles vary from a driver to a kidnapper. Regardless of the film, Sethupathi succeeds in delivering every comedic punch to its effect. Be it the drunken, stalker Kumar in Idharkuthane Aasaipattai Balakumara or leader of thieves in Yamarajapuram, Sethupathi outshines the hero of the film. In a word, you could watch how Sethupathi “hijacks” these films with his stellar performance

Naduvula Konjam Pakkatha Kaanom

The film showcases one of the earlier performances of Sethupathi. It tells the story of a man who suffers from temporary memory loss after getting hit on the head. But the really bad part is, his wedding is tomorrow and he cannot even recognise his bride. How his friends manage to make it through the day with an amnesiac friend forms the crux of the story.

This Vijay Sethupathi-starrer is a laugh riot portraying a local rogue who loves fun and alcohol. Problems arise when he falls head over heels with his neighbour Kumudha and stalks her. Kumuda’s father calls in a local goon for help. The film deals with the theme of butterfly effect
