Vijay said that he didn't have any uncertainty about the lip-lock sequence in his forthcoming Telugu romantic drama "Arjun Reddy" as it was very essential from the story's point of view. "The film is based on some incidents which happened in a medical college. We have given a fictional twist to some real events. This is the story of my character Arjun Reddy, who is in love and he expresses his affection through a kiss,'' Vijay said.
"We have included the lip-lock scene because the story demanded it," Vijay said. Vijay can't understand why a lip-lock is being termed as vulgar.
"When people watch the film, they would understand the purpose behind the scene. He kisses her out of love and passion. I don't understand what's vulgar about kissing when in a relationship. It's not like we have shot the lip-lock sequence in poor taste," he said.
The film features Vijay as a medical surgeon and it also stars Shalini, Jia Sharma, Sanjay Swaroop and Gopinath Bhat. "It's an emotional love story set against the backdrop of a medical college," he said.
Calling it a contemporary and urban love story, Vijay said the film will stand out for its very realistic treatment. The film, directed by Sandeep Vanga, is riding on very high expectations as it's releasing after Vijay's highly successful Telugu romantic-comedy "Pellichoopulu".
"The success of 'Pellichoopulu' has raised the stakes of our film and has made it big in terms of anticipation. With the release of the film's trailer, which received tremendous response, the buzz has only multiplied," he said.
