Actor Vijay Sethupathi is on a high after the success of his recent movie 'Vikram Vedha'. He has a handful of projects - all in different stages of production. He has teamed up with director Gokul for 'Junga', shooting for which commenced on September 29, in Europe. But the hot news is that even before the film's shoot, A&P Groups are on board to co-produce and distribute the venture. During a press meet for another project, 'Karuppan', Sethupathi was asked if he would accept a National award for the movie, considering its regional flavour.

The actor replied, “It is a very advanced question to answer now, but I can tell it without any doubts or second thoughts. I wouldn't accept the National award. My people and my state are important for me, first of all, I won't do that. We are being squeezed by the Central Government. I am already highly worried that our language Tamil has been removed from the train tickets. It angers me so much. I feel we should concentrate more on the action, than emotions.”
