Last year, when asked to pick between Chiranjeevi and Thalapathy Vijay in an interview, Keerthy Suresh picked the latter. Chiru's fans trolled her for calling Vijay a better dancer.
The Mahanati actress has defended herself without changing her stance. On Wednesday, she said that she has always liked Vijay's dances the most. "It's not about who is better. Chiranjeevi garu himself knows how big a fan I am of Vijay sir. I love Chiranjeevi garu, I respect him. He and I had these kinds of conversations. I didn't mean to come across in a wrong way. If I have hurt his fans, I am sorry. I once told him I like Vijay sir's dances. Listening to me, he was a sport. Nobody is lesser than the other. Chiranjeevi garu is a huge star. Undoubtedly, he is one of the biggest stars in the country," Keerthy Suresh said, adding that both actors are legends.
It's rare for someone to not change a position when questioned in a controversial manner about two big stars. Keerthy Suresh could do it because she had made her choice clear to Chiranjeevi himself in a private convo.
