Vijay Deverakonda on sobering down before marriage

Previously, in an interview with India Today, Vijay Deverakonda explained that while he looks forward to getting married and having a family of his own someday, he still feels the need to have enough mental maturity to grow up and sober down before that.

He added that, interestingly, his parents were not pressuring him to get married, but they do want him to settle down soon.

The Kingdom actor said, “My parents aren't bugging me, and they let me be. But, recently, they have been subtly hinting at marriage. I would love family life. It would be fulfilling to be married and have your kids. There will be a time I will do that. But I need more mental maturity to do that. I need to grow up and sober down.”

Vijay claimed marriage cannot be taken for granted

The actor then mentioned that he still feels like a kid and doesn’t feel answerable to anyone, a fact that he must change if he ever wishes to get married.
