Talking about the Power Star, Vijay said, “I respect his hard work, I am really happy for him. I heard he was trolled for contesting. But that man won. He is not a hero in somebody’s story, he is a hero in his own story.’’
“I don’t know about Pawan Kalyan sir, I don’t know anything about him. But few Telugu people shared content on social media through which I got to know about him. Then I understood that this man is not only a mass hero in films but also in real life,” he added.

I acted with Krithi Shetty in Uppenna in 2021, and later, a director told me let’s approach her for another film as a heroine. I said no because I had asked her to consider me as a dad during the climax sequence of Uppenna. So, I said no.”
