Meanwhile, Vijay's highly anticipated movie 'Beast', which is set to release in theatres on April 13, suffered a huge blow as it got banned in Kuwait and Qatar.
Although the reasons are still unclear, it is speculated that the decision comes from the portrayal of Muslims in the film. The film reportedly depicts Muslim characters as terrorists. In a parallel narrative, it is also believed that the reason could be because of the movie's anti-Pakistan sentiments.
'Beast', directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, is a hostage drama with Vijay playing the leading role.
Interestingly, while the film has been banned in Kuwait and Qatar, it has gotten clearance in the UAE and other Arab countries.
