Actor Vijay Varma recently found himself at the centre of an online discussion after a casual remark about fellow actor Kartik Aaryan sparked mixed reactions on social media.

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.

However, the clip quickly started circulating online, leading to divided opinions online. 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 section of social media users also felt the remark was being misinterpreted and was actually intended as praise. On the work front, Vijay Varma will next be seen in Family Business, while Kartik Aaryan has multiple projects lined up, including Naagzilla and an untitled film directed by Anurag Basu.
