Vijay on marriage
When asked by Lifestyle Asia if he was tying the knot soon or getting engaged to Rashmika, he replied, “I’m not getting engaged or married in February. It feels like the press wants to get me married every two years. I hear this rumour every year. They’re just walking around waiting to catch me and get me married.” He did not however seem to delve more deeply into that, choosing to talk about his work.
He also spoke about his film with Puri Jagannadh, Liger, tanking at the box office and said that he doesn’t think there’s anything he could’ve changed. “It was a script I liked, a director I was very keen to work with and I gave it my everything,” he said, adding, “In hindsight, there could have been things that could have been better about it but there’s nothing that I can change, and I don’t even think about changing it. It was a part of my life; I gave a few years to it, and I moved on.”
