Charan is very mature, and I see myself in him. He also gives equal importance to family, and as an actor, too, he does his job well.

Movies make teenagers have quippy answers for every question. Nothing seems to faze them, and they're like, 'Oh, whatever.' You're not like that when you're a teenager. You're really earnest.
