During the Liger promotions, Vijay Deverakonda made statements that sounded rather unusual. He expressed his desire to eliminate reviews system and communicate directly with the audience.
He emphasized that when he praises a movie, the audience should trust his word rather than relying on reviews. His aim was to establish credibility for his opinions before his film releases, thereby reducing the need for others to write reviews.
Fast forward to Liger’s disastrous pan-India debut, shattering the immense hype.
Speaking at the Kushi Trailer event, Vijay recalled his promise during the Liger promotion. He expressed his disappointment in not foreseeing Liger’s failure, honestly remarking, “How did the bloody idiot dumb not see it?”
He announced that for his next three films, he plans to keep quiet, acknowledging his embarrassment and allowing his work to speak for itself. Hope he will bounce back big time and deliver few hits consistently.
