When someone asked the Arjun Reddy actor about his take on social media trolls, Vijay responded with a witty answer. He said, “it’s common, it’s an everyday thing. Even before I became an actor, aunties, and uncles used to troll about results, college, job, etc and now it’s social media trolling. Be it anything, trolling is always there."

The Geetha Govindam actor also tackled some serious questions regarding Liger being quite similar to Puri Jagannad’s earlier film Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi and whether the sports drama is a remake of that. Putting all the rumours and speculations to rest, Vijay answered, “It’s nothing to Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi and it’s not related to it too. In Liger, we are doing MMA, which is very much from boxing and the entire drama. The son and mother bond and the sentiment is very important in Liger and other than that there is no similarity with Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi. I’m a fan of that movie and I really liked it, it’s my favourite. Also, I’m not somebody who will do remakes, so Liger is not related to Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi. When you watch the movie you will understand."
