He’s not a yes person. He’s on point. This is good…this is not good…this is what I think…this is what I don’t think. He has supported me personally more than anyone else in my entire life. So, I feel he’s someone I really, really respect.”

Last month, at the start of the year, reports were abuzz with engagement rumours of the two Telugu stars.
