Vijay Varma recalls how getting any film a few years ago was a “jackpot” for him

Since starring in Gully Boy in 2019, Vijay Varma’s career has taken off. However, the actor admits that getting to where he is now has not been easy.

“A lot has changed since Gully Boy,” Varma says of his journey, which began with the film Chittagong in 2012. Life was very different before the movie. Getting an ant film was like winning the lottery at the time. “Getting a film was the ultimate goal.”

The Pink (2016) actor claims that his approach to project selection has changed, and it is no longer the same as it was during his struggle.

“Now I have to accept that I cannot repeat what I have done previously; this is a priority.” You might want to work with certain directors and artists who will help you get to a certain point. He says, “That becomes a point and a deciding factor.”

Darlings with Alia Bhatt, Fallen with Sonakshi Sinha, Hurdang with Nushrratt Bharuccha and Sunny Kaushal, Sumit Saxena’s untitled project, and the recently announced Sujoy Ghosh-helmed project with Kareena Kapoor Khan and Jaideep Ahlawat are among his upcoming projects.

“With more protagonist roles on the way, I’d like to keep it up.” As the options become more numerous, you must decide which ones you can carry on your shoulder. That kind of maturity takes time to develop, and it does so through experience and practise. I need to learn from the work I’ve done so far. Because there are so many options now, choosing a script is a lot more difficult than it used to be,” Varma explains.

Is it difficult to say no in these situations? “Saying no is a skill that I am learning,” he concludes.

Family Star review

The Hindustan Times’ review of the movie Family Star, starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Parasuram Petla, suggests that the film struggles to make a mark or entertain, with issues reminiscent of Geetha Govindam (2018). The film tests patience and fails to maintain interest as it progresses.

The review criticizes the plot of Family Star, stating that it is thin and defies logic, making it difficult to enjoy. It also suggests that the film’s portrayal of middle-class life is caricaturish, as if it was written by someone unfamiliar with the realities of such a life.
