What Vijay Varma said During a rapid-fire segment in an interaction with WeAreYuvaa, Vijay was asked to name actors based on specific traits. When prompted about who he considers the "King of PR" in the industry, he took Kartik Aaryan's name. The comment was made in a light-hearted, spontaneous setting. However, the clip quickly started circulating online, leading to divided opinions online. How social media reacted While some users took offence and interpreted the remark as a subtle dig, criticising Vijay and calling him "jealous" or "hypocritical," others came out in his support, highlighting the informal nature of rapid-fire rounds. A Reddit user backed the actor, stating, "Honestly, he is spot on with all the answers." Another comment read, "I think being honest is not a crime, completely supporting Vijay Verma here!" Several others emphasised that such segments are meant to be light-hearted and spontaneous. One user said, "It was rapid fire yaar, why take it so seriously?" while another added, "It was clearly meant in a light-hearted way…nothing 'PR expose' level dramatic about it." A section of social media users also felt the remark was being misinterpreted and was actually intended as praise. One user wrote, "He was just appreciating, logo ne ulta hi le liya." Another comment stated, "Joke tha yaar, compliment samjho na and upar se he's actually called king of PR by everyone!"
