Vikram, who was eager in delivering a blockbuster, made use of the opportunity and tasted a grand success with 'Sethu', which was directed by Bala.

Vikram proved that he can do several types of characters at the same time, and played the role of a person who has multiple personality disorders in 'Anniyan'. His change of characters in seconds during an investigation is pure class, and that explicated his acting skills. Vikram sported three different looks and turned super fit for Shankar's directorial.
