New Delhi: Tamil actor and music composer Vijay Antony is currently promoting his upcoming film 'Hitler'. The actor has had a hard time since last year, after the death of his daughter Meera. She was found dead at her Cheenai home last year in September. Recently, in an interview with India Today, Vijay spoke about his upcoming film while also talking about the tough circumstances he faced in his personal life.
About daughter Meera's loss
When Vijay was asked about his daughter and his loss, he said, "Nothing is hard. Everything is a part of our life here. From my childhood itself, I don’t believe in anything. When you see nothing, where can you hold? When there’s nothing, what do you hold on to?”.
For those unaware, Vijay Antony's daughter was found dead in her room on September 19, 2023. The actor and music composer had rushed her to a private hospital, where she was declared dead on arrival. Meera's sudden death had come as a shock to many in the film industry.
On abstaining from material wealth
Antony also shared that he had abstained from wearing footwear during the promotions of his film."Wearing no footwear is actually a luxury for me. You are wearing shoes and are tied down by things like this. I am, on the other hand, luxurious. I can go without all of this. Whenever I am feeling difficulties, I will definitely wear slippers. We had a shoot in the forest, where there were many insects and other things. At that time, I wore shoes. And for my live concert in Sri Lanka, I wore it because there were electrical wirings all over the place. It wasn’t safe. So, I wear them when it becomes a necessity. But mostly, 70% of the time I walk barefoot. The more you detach yourself from materialistic things, the soon you will attain ‘that’ state," he said.
Directed by Dhana, 'Hitler' also stars Roya Suman and Gautham Vasudev Menon. It is slated to be release d in theatres on September 27.
