Koffee With Karan 7: Vijay Deverakonda calls Kushi co-star Samantha 'darling, amazing, incredible woman'

Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya Panday were the latest stars to spill the beans on the Koffee With Karan 7 couch. As always, Karan Johar’s popular array of games certainly led to some gems of answers by the guests, who did not hold back in the least when it came to the honesty of their answers. The line of questioning and games saw Vijay express his appreciation for Samantha Ruth Prabu, who will share the screen with him next in Kushi.

During the rapid fire round, Karan asked Vijay whom he thought was the most desirable woman in India. Without skipping a beat, the actor said Samantha’s name, which made Ananya respond “I knew he would say that”. On Karan’s jab whether Vijay expressed his feelings for Samantha when the two worked on Kushi, the actor slyly says that Samantha was already aware of it. Ananya could not help but tease her Liger co-star, shooting knowing glances at the camera whenever the actor mentioned Samantha.

Vijay went on to praise Samantha, and said “"She is a darling. She is amazing. An incredible woman”. Vijay’s delightful candidness led him to be declared the winner of the rapid fire round.

Vijay went on to display his close bond with Samantha yet again, when the former rang up the latter during one of the game rounds. Not one to be left behind, Ananya too jumped into the game with her best foot forward, calling up Kartik Aaryan, Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Dhawan as well.

Meanwhile, Khushi marks Vijay and Samantha’s most recent collaboration together. The duo had shared the screen in the 2018 film Mahanati, which is available for streaming on MX Player and Amazon Prime Video.

Khushi is helmed by Shiva Nirvana and bankrolled by Y Ravi Shankar and Naveen Yerneni under the banner of Mythri Movie Makers.
