"This is nothing but an attention-getting gimmick. So far I’ve been bearing with these loud obnoxious efforts to get my attention. These are people who have nothing better to do. But keeping quiet is seen as a &nbsp;sign of cowardice after a point," says &nbsp;Sethupathi.</p>

Vijay Sethupathi: I will not be pushed for attention
