The Thuppakki team, along with the hero Vijay, was stationed in Mumbai for a good 6-7 months in an attempt to shoot the film in the Maximum City for an authentic feel. In between all the hectic schedules of shooting for the film, Vijay has admitted to have found time to watch almost all the Hindi releases that came out during that period.
It is believed that Vijay would go to a Cineplex every Friday and nonchalantly buy a ticket from the counter and seat himself right in the middle of the hall to enjoy the film, one thing he just cannot afford to do in the South. While he was audience to many top hero films like Don-2 and Agneepath, the movie that supposedly impressed him the most was the offbeat and quirky Vicky Donor.
