Actor Vijay Deverakonda said he would rather embrace a blockbuster hit with bad reviews than stars from critics. He is currently awaiting the release of his new film “Kushi”, co-starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu. “When a film doesn’t perform or work, it does hurt. I have experienced many flops in the past, and ‘Liger’ is not the first one… That’s the only way I can learn.”
“Kushi” follows the story of Viplab and Aradhaya, who go against all odds and marry each other, only to discover that marriage is not a bed of roses. Deverakonda, known for films such as “Arjun Reddy”, “Dear Comrade”, and “Mahanati”, said failure is as much a part of life as success. “Success is failing and still moving forward and correcting the wrong things and doing them right.” the actor added.
“I have decided to shut my mouth for the next three films and let my work speak,” he added. ‘Pushpa’ or ‘KGF’, we enjoy them as a fan, we celebrate them. But you know you are not Pushpa or you are not Rocky. If you watch ‘Kushi’, you know you are Viplab. “You know your wife or girlfriend is Aradhya. You know it is your story that is playing out. So, the connect to it is at another level.”
