In a candid interview, Vijay Varma openly discussed his approach to taking on various roles without fearing typecasting. He drew inspiration from legendary actors like Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan who themselves have never afraid to be so. He said, “I have never been scared of typecast because the actors I have grown up watching did not believe in that either.”

He further added, “There are actors who listen to outside noise and there are actors who hear their own voice. I am in the second group. It did not matter to me that people were thinking I could only do one kind of role because I used to feel I could never do negative roles. So, when I did not know about my capabilities, so how can anyone else know that.”

On the work front, Vijay delivered back-to-back stellar performances with Darlings, Dahaad, Lust stories 2 and his most recent show, Kaalkoot. It definitely is the Year of Vijay Varma with a string of superlative performances. He will be next seen in Devotion of Suspect X alongside Kareena Kapoor Khan apart from Murder Mubarak alongside Sara Ali Khan and the much-anticipated Mirzapur 3.
