In a promotional interview with Alitho Saradaga, the young actor shared his association with his parents and the events that led to him acting in films. In response to a question, the young actor stated that he preferred to prove his own abilities rather than be known by the Puri Jagannadh tagline. He described how actor Ram Charan spent a day grooming his hair with jelly. He's also talked about his feelings for a girl and the movies he's acting.
