Many understood that it is usual for the director to call her as “Thambi” fondly. But a separate set of fans trolled him for calling Samantha as “Thambi”. “Does she changed her gender” asked one of the twitter user. Check out some of their reactions here :’

Director Atlee has a unique bonding with the heroines who acted in his films. Instead of calling them by their names, he would call Nayanthara as “Darling”, Samantha as “Thambi” to show his affection.
Singapenney is the first song to be released from the Bigil album. AR Rahman is upbeat about the film and director Atlee’s taste in music. In an earlier interview, he said that he has never seen a film like this (Bigil) in South India.
Indhuja Ravichandran, who was lauded for her performance in Meyadha Maan, will be seen as a football player, along with several other newcomers. Vijay will be seen in two roles, in those of a father and a son. While the father Vijay is touted to be a local gangster from North Chennai, son Vijay is apparently the coach of the women’s football team.
