Vijay Varma has said he is not “particularly comfortable” with the attention that his relationship with Tamannaah Bhatia has received recently. The actors were recently seen together for the first time onscreen in Netflix’s ‘Lust Stories 2.’ They featured in Sujoy Ghosh’s short in the Netflix Anthology.
Vijay said, “First of all, it’s news to me that we are one of the most sought-after couples. It’s very humbling and very nice, but I wasn’t used to it when it first happened. I was very used to roaming around on my own. We go out together and we tend to get a lot of attention… I am not particularly comfortable but I am just trying to get used to it.”
Tamannaah confirmed her relationship with Vijay earlier this year, after months of speculation about their bond. They were often spotted together, leading to relationship rumours. She had revealed that it all began when they started working together on ‘Lust Stories 2.’ A video showing them kissing during a New Year party in Goa had surfaced in January.
After impressing the audience and critics with his work in Prime Video's original web series ‘Dahaad,’ Vijay was most recently seen in ‘Kaalkoot.’ Streaming on JioCinema, the web series featured Shweta Tripathi Sharma, Yashpal Sharma, Gopal Datt, and Seema Biswas. Directed by Sumit Saxena, the series features Vijay in a positive role after a long time.
Vijay also has a thriller lined up for release. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, it is based on the book ‘The Devotion of Suspect X’ and also features Jaideep Ahlawat and Kareena Kapoor Khan. Vijay will also be seen in an important role in Homi Adjania's ‘Murder Mubarak.’
