Happening young hero Vijay Deverakonda seems to have been frustrated a little with NOTA's result. Post the major success of Geetha Govindam Vijay's craze knew no bounds. And then, expectations soured high on the success of NOTA. Much to the hero's shocker, the film posted poor numbers at the ticket windows and resultantly, it became a dud.
On the other hand, Vijay appeared to have been annoyed with Telugu states' media for criticizing the film. As such, he posted a letter to his detractors in which he heaped praises on Tamil Nadu media which indirectly a satire on Telugu media. Yet, Vijay assured that he would exercise on criticisms and would learn from them. Following is the letter posted by Vijay in his Twitter handle.
"To everyone who goes to the cinema for me Love. And to all who hope others fail and celebrate it Smile. I will not make excuses, I take responsibility, I am proud of NOTA. It's a story I wanted to tell, a character explored and a performance delivered.
Tamil Nadu, the national media and all the audience who loved it here, your love has been received. All the disappointment and criticism is taken seriously, it will be studied, the miscalculation on my side corrected, decisions evaluated and work put in but the attitude will not change.
A success or failure isn't what makes or breaks a Rowdy. The day you stop, give in, give up, that's when you stop being one. And being Rowdy isn't about just winning, it's fighting for that win, it's an attitude that burns inside us, so be proud rowdies, keep fighting. 'Gelusthe Gelustamm Leda Nerchukuntamm'
For those who are celebrating this, ippude pandaga cheskondi. I will be back.
Rowdy for life!
Your man.
Vijay Deverakonda."
