Vijay Deverakonda Speaks About Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s Myositis

Vijay Deverakonda

Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha Ruth Prabhu created a memorable night at the Kushi musical concert that took place recently. During the event, the star of “Liger” also discussed Samantha’s experience dealing with the autoimmune condition Myositis. He shared details about the period when her health condition caused a pause in the filming of “Kushi” and explained why Samantha chose to share her struggles publicly.

Vijay Deverakonda expressed his desire for “Kushi” to be a hit so he can witness Samantha’s happiness, considering it his responsibility. He talked about Samantha’s challenges and health, saying, “More than me, I want to see Samantha smile. She went through a lot for this film. We began shooting in April 2022 with positivity. We were 60 percent done. Only around 30-35 percent of the shoot was remaining. By July, Samantha’s health declined. She informed us about her health issues. Shiva and I were like, ‘You look great. What’s wrong?’ We didn’t grasp it fully. Later, we understood her struggle.”

The “Arjun Reddy” star disclosed that Samantha distanced herself due to her health problems. He mentioned, “In July, while I was promoting another film, I learned about Sam’s health. Initially, she kept quiet about it. I told her that we are actors and storytellers. I believed we didn’t need to discuss our struggles openly. Eventually, Samantha felt it was her responsibility to talk about her health. She stopped engaging with us and avoided meeting us. Her condition was extremely serious. She faced numerous battles. At that point, she decided to share her story with everyone, to offer hope. Today, we met about 50-60 people [on August 15], and almost 40 individuals approached her, sharing how they dealt with health issues and how she inspired them. I think what Sam did was the right thing.”

Concluding his speech, the actor acknowledged that Samantha’s health hasn’t fully recovered; she still experiences severe headaches and sensitivity to bright lights. Nonetheless, she consistently shows up, dresses up, dances, and smiles, solely for her devoted fans. With “Kushi” gearing up for a major release on September 1, a special musical concert was held in Hyderabad on Independence Day eve. Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha captivated the audience with their chemistry and dance performances to the title song of “Kushi.” Renowned music composer Hesham and singers like Sid Sriram, Javed Ali, and others also performed live on stage.

Vijay Deverakonda Values Commercial Success Over Critical Acclaim

Vijay Deverakonda

Actor Vijay Deverakonda expressed that he would prefer achieving a blockbuster hit with unfavourable reviews over earning stars from critics. Deverakonda, who faced disappointment with his recent release “Liger” at the box office, acknowledged that he has experienced his fair share of failures during his 12-year cinematic journey. Currently awaiting the release of his upcoming film “Kushi,” in which he co-stars with Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Deverakonda shared his perspective during the trailer launch of the Telugu film in Hyderabad.

I would rather have a hit with thumbs-down from critics.” He also mentioned his awareness of his prior flops and the importance of learning from them.

“Kushi,” directed by Shiva Nirvana, revolves around the story of Viplab and Aradhaya, a couple who confront challenges after marrying, realizing that marriage is not without difficulties. Deverakonda underlined that the film has a relatable aspect, as it portrays the story of an everyday couple.

Acknowledging the role of failure in life, Deverakonda noted that success encompasses both triumphs and setbacks. He shared his journey of self-discovery, revealing that he has adopted a more cautious approach. He disclosed, “I am somebody that speaks my mind… I have decided to shut my mouth for the next three films and let my work speak.”

“Kushi” is set to release in multiple languages on September 1, exploring the universal themes of love and marriage. Deverakonda expressed his own evolving view of marriage, revealing that he is considering it for the future. He concluded that the film has helped him come to terms with the concept of marriage and that he hopes to experience it in his life soon.

Producer of ‘Liger’ takes a break from social media following failure of Vijay Deverakonda film

Liger
  • Liger filmmaker has chosen to pay the distributors who have suffered as a result of the movie’s failure.
  • Distributor Warangal Srinu said that the boycott trend was the reason “Liger” failed.
  • Due to Karan Johar’s involvement in the movie, the movie has received criticism from online users.

The newly released movie “Liger,” starring Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya Panday, fell short of everyone’s expectations. The movie failed to do well at the box office despite extensive advertising. Producer Charmme Kaur said on Sunday that she is taking a break from social media in the midst of the backlash against the movie.

She tweeted, “Chill guys! Just taking a break ( from social media ) @PuriConnects will bounce back 😊 Bigger and Better… until then, Live and let Live .”

Have a look:

Puri Jagannadh, the filmmaker, has chosen to pay the distributors who have suffered as a result of the movie’s failure. To discuss their demands, he would meet in Hyderabad with distributors. Distributor Warangal Srinu previously told ETimes that the boycott trend was the reason “Liger” failed.

He had said, “Do we realise that in our quest of banning actors and filmmakers, based on preconceived notions, we are ruining poor families of poor crew members. The movies will decrease and lead to chaos in several families who depend on it for their daily meal. The movie industry is going through a very bad phase and social media users who are members of the unjustified ban culture that has come to dominate, should be ignored.”

Vijay responded to the boycott trend during the promotional period. “Kaun rokenge dekh lenge,” he murmured. Vijay’s remark didn’t sit well with online users. Due to Karan Johar’s involvement in the movie, the movie has received criticism from online users.
