Recently, he did fall in the eye of Karan Johar but the actor decided to take it slow now. He doesn’t want to rush as he did before with Tamil, it seems. Hence, even though he got an offer to play the role of Krishnamachari Srikanth in Kapil biopic, 83, he let go of the offer, it seems.
Ranveer Singh is acting as Kapil Dev in the film and Vijay doesn’t want to play a character in someone else’s film, it seems. He wants to stick to making better films and cement his place in Telugu, it seems.
