Vijay Varma shares, "I am getting all kinds of reactions after the release of Darlings; some are saying we hate Hamza, some are praising my performing skillsâ¦but the funniest has been my mom. She watched the film and called me in panic. She was worried that no one would marry her son now (laughs). I get where she was coming from but I had such a good laugh after hearing her reaction. I had to calm her down and assure her that this won't happen. Secretly, I am also hoping it doesn't."
The actor, who comes from humble roots, was born & brought up in Hyderabad. He later went to Pune's famous school FTII to study acting without the support of his parents. Watching the actor's journey of struggle to now being one of B-town's favourite 'Darling' and top performers is highly commendable.
