Master inspired by a Korean film? 

With a lot under the wraps, the story of the film has been kept tightly hidden. But still, it is rumoured that Master has been inspired by a Korean movie, which is titled Silenced. However, reports claim that the source has rubbished the news and said the Vijay-starrer is an original film.

Bigil has been a huge hit. Now expectations on this film are higher than Bigil. Malavika Mohanan looks amazing. Many are waiting to know what something so bad has happened, that Vijay Sethupathi and Thalapathy Vijay turn enemies in the film.

Extensively shot in Chennai, Delhi, Mumbai and Shimoga, Master has music by Anirudh Ravichander. Jukebox has already been a huge hit now and a few songs have already become chartbusters.
