Notably, Atlee has been time and again accused of copying posters, scenes and characters in his films. At the recent event, he addressed the criticism and said, "Generally, there’s a perception that the films I make are taken from here or there. But let me tell you about my life today and give an example you can connect with.”

He mentioned Vijay's character in 2019's Bigil, a gangster-turned-football coach, and said, "Raayappan in Bigil was inspired by Jeppiaar sir, the founder and chancellor of this university.
