Achieving superstardom is a dream for every actor. But it also comes with a price. Once a star gets popularity, he or she invariably becomes the focus of the media, and their personal life often turns the fodder for gossip. Superstars who achieve maturity brush the rumors about their love life aside and move on. Even if they have to condemn the rumors they deny them firmly and with decent language.
Example: Prabhas and Anushka. From Bollywood media to regional media, umpteen articles have been published about their relationship and marriage. They have made it clear that they are just friends. They denied rumors dignifiedly and said they have no plans of getting married to each other.
Vijay Deverakonda, who has now gained national recognition, should take a leaf out of Prabhas’s way of handling the media. When a portal recently published the gossip about Vijay Deverakonda’s marriage with Rashmika, which infuriated him. He has every right to condemn the baseless news and rumors. But he chose to deny the reports with double-meaning words. He has used words that usually trolls and immature fans use on social media.
If an immensely popular actor like Vijay Deverakonda also follows their method, it sets a bad trend. He needs to use professional language on public platforms. He has millions of followers on social media, many of them are vulnerable youngsters. He should be an ideal to them.
On the work front, Vijay Deverakonda just wrapped up the shooting of Puri Jagannadh’s ‘Liger’. He will also be working with Puri Jagannadh again, besides taking up Shiva Nirvana’s film.
