Merry Christmas review

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Vijay delivers a standout performance, so flawless that you can’t figure if he was actually playing the character or just being himself. After the villain in Jawan, seeing him in this mellowed avatar is quite refreshing. Katrina is class apart. Her expressions, body language and a restrained act never let her overpower the character. Though her emotional scenes looked a bit sketchy, but in rest of the portions, she manages to create the desired mystery around her character. I loved that Raghavan hasn’t tried to make his characters look extra flamboyant or sensuous. There’s a simplicity which you can sense – both in the character sketches and the narrative.”

Katrina on working with Vijay

Earlier, sharing her experience of working with Vijay Sethupathi, Katrina had said as quoted by news agency ANI, “Vijay is the best performer. During the first week of rehearsals, I was quite interested in his thought process and how he looked at every scene. Sriram sir gave the actors a lot of space before the shoot, and we had a lot of discussion. When I watched the final result, what I saw between Vijay and my character was surprising.”

Vijay had also praised Katrina Kaif and said, “She has been in the industry for so long, so I was a bit apprehensive as to how will be her attitude on the set because if the actor has an attitude, it is difficult to work with him or her. I met her first time in Sriram sir’s office and as soon as she entered the office there was such a healthy conversation. She likes to discuss more and listen more. There was a better understanding between us on the set. So much I gained and learned from her.”
