'Vikram' is the talk of the town. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and starring Kamal Haasan, Vijay Sethupathi, and Fahadh Faasil, Vikram is smashing the box office records. The reveal of Agent Tina's identity was one of the most startling and explosive moments in the film!
Tina was initially introduced as a simple-minded and devoted housemaid in the household of Kamal Haasan's son Prabhanjan. In reality, Tina is an agent from the Black Ops Squad's pilot batch; it was later revealed during an invasion by Sadhanam's men to abduct Kamal Haasan's grandson. When Agent Tina began bashing the thugs, the cinema burst into cheers and applause.
Surprisingly, Vasanthi, who portrays Tina, has never acted in any other movie. Let's look at eight interesting facts about this actress who has swept the internet by storm!
