As Bobby Deol began discussing his experience in South Indian Cinema, the Animal star said, “I am doing a film with Vijay Thalapathy. It is gonna be released on Pongal. It’s his last film because he’s going to join politics, that is what he is saying.”

“He’s a massive star. I initially asked the team where we would be shooting. However, they told me we’ll mainly have to shoot within studios because if Thalapathy Vijay sir goes out, people gather around, and we won’t be able to work. He is that big of a star,” Deol added.

In the same conversation, Bobby Deol recalled his experience working with Nandamuri Balakrishna and Suriya in earlier films. The actor said, “It was great working with Bala sir. He is a star of the masses, like that’s his title. Over there, everyone has something like this to their name. He is a great person to work with.”

“I did Kanguva, which did not do well. However, I always want to do a movie with Suriya… he is a great actor, but the script went wrong,” he added.
