Sharing her experience of collaborating with him, she said, 'Vijay Varma is one of those people. I have found it so amazing to work with him. And I've worked on three projects with him now. On all three projects, he's just the most giving actor. He just holds space, and he will communicate with his co-performer—even if it's cracking jokes to make them laugh, and not in a way that is weird, but in a way that's friendly, to make someone feel a lot more at ease in their space. He's definitely one of those people. Vijay is full green flag energy." The 39-year-old actor was most recently seen on The Great Indian Kapil Show.
