Atlee spoke about Vijay in Mersal audio launch. He said, “Two persons are the reason for Mersal to happen, my brother and Ilaiyathalapathy Vijay. In Theri there where four fight sequences, now in Mersal there are 13 fight sequences. Vijay has put all his efforts in this movie, when I saw him putting all the efforts to entertain his fans I have no words to express, how his sincere and dedicated he is.
If the dialogues in the movie has perfectly written in Mersal then all the credits should go to Ramanagiri Vasan. Don’t ask me does Vijay sir have three roles in this movie, but I would say he has three heroines in this movie. Vadivelu has done an extraordinary role in this movie and he has acted like Manivannan Sir. Mersal story is all about the Tamils identity, culture and heritage; that is all I can say about the movie now I would definitely say a lot more in the 100th day function.” Atlee confirmed the success of Mersal in the audio launch.
