Vijay Does not bother about these things says Prabhu Deva

9/08/2013

Actor, Choreographer and Director Prabhu Deva off late has had his fair share of controversies, Firstly when he said Tollywood was main reason for his Bollywood success and then another interview when quizzed on who were the best dancers he had come across, He named Chiranjeevi, Hrithik Roshan, Shahid Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor, Ram Charan Teja, Allu Arjun, Jr.NTR, Dhanush, STR and Jeyam Ravi and actresses Madhuri Dixit, Sri Devi, Priyanka Chopra and Sonakhsi Sinha.

However he failed to mention the name of Ilayathalapathy Vijay with whom he worked numerous times and for this he incurred the wrath of Vijay fans. Prabhu Deva in a recent interview to Times of India was asked about if he was aware of the consequences, here is what he had to say 

In an interview recently, you had missed out Vijay's name in the list of south Indian actors who dance well. Do you know his fans are upset?

Oh, really? I have not heard of this.

In fact, certain sections of the media reported that you called up Vijay to apologize for this slip up...

(Laughs) I really don't remember if I mentioned Vijay or not in that interview. Anyway, Vijay and I share a good rapport. So, he knows me well enough to not bother about such things.
