Did Keerthy Suresh insult Chiranjeevi

Keerthy Suresh's Revolver Rita is racing for a release on 28 November 2025. Now, speaking to scribes, Keerthy Suresh said she likes Vijay as the dancer and many thought she was insulting Chiranjeevi.

Keerthy Suresh reacting to it, said  “It’s not about who looks better. Chiranjeevi garu himself knows how big a fan I am of Vijay sir. I love Chiranjeevi garu, I love working with him, I respect him. When I spoke to him, we had these kinds of conversations. I didn’t mean to come across as disrespectful. If I’ve hurt Chiranjeevi garu’s fans, I’m sorry.”

She continued "But what I’m trying to say is, Chiranjeevi garu has spoken to me about who I like acting with or whose dance I like. I told him I like Vijay sir’s dance and Suriya sir. He has taken it in a very sportive way. We know how big a megastar Chiranjeevi garu is; nobody is lesser than the other. Both are great actors. My mother (actor Menaka) has worked with Chiranjeevi garu, and he’s one of the biggest stars of the country.”

She added “He’s a megastar and a legend, we know. But Vijay sir is also a legend there. When they ask me, it was my choice to say what I felt. It’s also because I’ve seen more of Vijay sir’s films. Chiranjeevi garu has only appreciated my honesty. It’s a little sad that when you want to say something, you’re not able to say what you want to.”

The controversy erupted when Keerthy Suresh said Vijay is the best dancer compared to Chiranjeevi.
