I have been through that. And I would have constant dreams where you know you feel like you are the only one and everyone has turned their back on you and you are calling out for them. That was a constant dream, I don't know what it was and I don't know how it was. I would wake myself up with such dreams and cry myself to bed, or even wake up crying." What are some of the key moments from Vijay-Rashmika's Dear Comrade? Apart from Bobby and Lilly's first scene, the T-shirt scene from the film was loved by fans.
