Since his debut, I haven’t seen chay in this kind of fun & extrovert nature. Had ultimate fun watching this. Thanks for bringing this session

[@nehachalluru1493]

He used to be introvert.

[@buntysonawane5750]

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.

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 ❤️

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.

[@SA-qr2ze]

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

I love this interview so so much.❤ The best interview of Chay till now. He was so talkative, chilled out and really funny. You made him feel comfortable. That's awesome. It shows what an amazing interviewer you are. These days I'm binge watching movies with Naga, really really like him a lot. Lots of love from Poland 🇵🇱❤

Thanks to these real superstars of south industries that hindi film industry can learn from... south ppl are so down to earth and real, their body language conveys the msg that they are really normal human being like us... whereas hindi film stars are so obsessed with fake narrative of stardom... they think that they are some super class human beings and thats how they behave at any stage... very few like Aamir, Ranbir, Nawazuddin seem real in industry here.
