Being a telugu guy.. and following his work from the beginning..he never opened up like this in any interview..kudos to sid and Chay..ohh boy..I thought you will be awkward..Damm ..you were chilled out and funny..

[buntysonawane]

It's a great compliment to Siddharth & the whole team when an actor as shy & introvert feels comfortable & opens up. Cheers to The Bombay Journey.

He reminds me of his dad ..casual n still a kid he seems..He came across as a friend really n I give that credit to Sid..Lovelu to hear Telugu n the way he spoke abt Hyderabad’s slow pace(I love it) Saw his Thank you a lovely film ..Unfortunately he was not used well in LSC, he deserved better

[yuvitalks]

I dont know why but south Indian artists are so good to ears when they speak. They are so humble and logical.

[bandarumanikumar]

Here chay is soo opened up..he is not talking like some hero or celebrity…just like two frnds chit chatting in a drive..
awesome man

[sanchitasharma]

The reaction at 11:29 was so honest and humble. Love the vibe of this guy. Looking forward to see him in more movies 🎥

[theekshanaliyanage]

Just here for ''Chay" and really enjoyed the conversation. He is always inexplicably humble and simple. His acting was really up to the mark in the "Laal Sing Chadda", still he could have entered Hindi movies with a tangible role. Needless to say, he was humble enough to accepted this tiny role after being a big start in south. Hats off and wishes him all the luck.

I am marathi and this line I loved 😀 Ghaai... NC: like why are you taking 1 second away from my life 😂 NC is so clever, intelligent, funny and gentleman!! ♥️

[akshayaakshi]

Best interview. Chay so cool and fun. Look like two friends chit chat. Not an anchor and celebrity. Full of positive positive happy vibe by chay and sid

[SA-qrze]

Accepting privilege of being frm film industry is d best thing about South actors . They never take their privilege for granted ❤️ and r so down to earth

[ssiddarth]

Really liked his chilled out attitude & the subtitles weren't a problem at all (language shouldn't be a barrier when you're looking to invite guests on the show), infact it was pretty fun listening to the both of you speaking in Telugu. Thanks Mashable team ❤️

[koushikkulkarni]

Full whole heartedly interview given by Akkineni Naga

[axone]

This guy is awesome ...he acknowledges his privilege....and does not complain bout it ... It's rare .. more power to chaitanya.
