Vijay Varma Opens Up: Why He Refused to Hide His Love for Tamannaah Bhatia
Vijay Varma has been dating actress Tamannaah Bhatia for over a year, and he's made it clear that he never intended to hide their relationship. In a candid interview with Shubhankar Mishra on YouTube, Vijay shared his thoughts on being open about his love life.
Why Vijay Varma Chose to Be Vocal
When asked why he decided to go public with his romance, Vijay explained that both he and Tamannaah were on the same page. He said, "If we like spending time together and enjoy each other's company, there's no need to hide it. Hiding a relationship requires a lot of effort, and I wasn’t comfortable with that. I didn’t want to feel caged or restrict our lives.”
Keeping Some Things Private
Despite being open about their relationship, Vijay emphasized that some aspects remain private. He mentioned that he has over 5000 photos of them together, but they choose not to share them on social media. These moments are special to them, and they prefer to keep them close to their hearts.
Balancing Relationship and Career
Vijay was also asked if his relationship ever overshadows his work. He acknowledged that society is often more interested in personal lives than professional achievements, saying, "Everyone seems to have a gossipy side that focuses on relationships. It’s something we can’t change, but I still receive appreciation for my work when it’s released."
The Start of Their Relationship
Rumors about Vijay and Tamannaah dating began when they were spotted celebrating New Year's together in Goa, before the release of Lust Stories 2. The anthology, directed by Sujoy Ghosh, brought the couple together on screen for the first time. Tamannaah confirmed their relationship in June, and since then, they’ve been openly affectionate, often seen together at public events.
