Actor Vijay Deverakonda attended a press meet on Sunday for Suriya’s film Retro in Hyderabad. At the event, the Liger star recalled feeling enraged after watching Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava, specifically the brutality shown at the hands of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, played by Akshaye Khanna. Vijay shared that if he could go back in time, he’d surely give the ruthless ruler 2-3 tight slaps.
When Suma, the host of the event, asked Vijay if he wanted to go back in time to meet someone, the actor replied, “I want to meet the British and give them two tight slaps. I recently watched Chhaava, and it enraged me. I’d probably take the opportunity to give Aurangzeb two to three tight slaps also. I want to meet so many others like that, just to hit them. Right now, it’s all I can think of.”
