Mrunal Thakur SHOCKED To Hear Vijay Deverakonda Calls Himself 'The Vijay', Says 'No, Really?' | Watch

Mrunal Thakur shared her thoughts on her co-actor Vijay Deverakonda in Family Star and was taken by surprise that he refers himself to as ‘The Vijay Deverakonda.’ During a conversation with Galatta Plus, when this was mentioned to her, she reacted with surprise, saying, “Really? Okay, The Vijay.” She then added, “But for me, the Vijay is Vijay Deenanath Chauhan,” referring to Amitabh Bachchan’s iconic character from Agneepath. As the room’s light flickered, she said, “See, it flickered. Something happened!” The clip has gone viral on Reddit.

“Thinks he is the rock,” wrote one user. Another wrote, “Oh god. This is CRINGE.” “What really? Sheer arrogance. Zabardasti sir pe chadha ke rakha hai,” read a third comment.

During a recent interview with the same portal, Vijay Deverakonda also talked about co-star Mrunal Thakur. He said that it’s easy when one is acting alongside such a smart actress. “When you have an intelligent actress with you, it is very easy. Mrunal has been acting even before I started dreaming of films. She has been working from a young age. She picks up things very fast. I keep telling her that she is blessed with a face. Even if she doesn’t say too much, you can feel the emotions. The geometry of her nose, lips and eyes… there’s something about it that the emotions comes through well even if she doesn’t know the language. It was very easy to work with her.”

Meanwhile, despite receiving mixed reviews from both audiences and critics, the film has performed well at the box office. The film made a strong debut at the box office, grossing approximately Rs 5.75 crores in net earnings across India on its opening day, according to early estimates by sacnilk.
