Talking with Cinema Vikatan, Vijay Deverakonda said, “Relationships come above everything. I have been growing up over the last 2 years. I have learned to live life also. Before that, I was not like this. Last 2-3 years, I didn’t like how my life went. I didn’t spend enough time with my mum, dad, my girlfriend, and friends.”
“Suddenly, one day, I realized. I didn’t want to have such a feeling. Now… I make efforts to make time for my people. I make time for my friends, I make time for my mum and dad, for my relationships,” he added.
