In the documentary, Nagarjuna shared his first impressions of Nayanthara, describing her as having an “aura of royalty.” He remarked, “When Nayan walked into the set, of course, she was beautiful, but there was an aura of royalty walking in. The warmth she spoke with, her genuine smile, I had this instant connection with her. This is a person I would like to be friends with.”

Speaking about her relationship and its impact on her work, Nagarjuna expressed that the Jawan actress was in a “turbulent” relationship. Reflecting on the experience, he said, “I remember we were shooting in Switzerland; I think she was going through a very turbulent time in a relationship. We would all dread her phone ringing. If the phone rang, this girl’s mood would just come down. She would just turn off.”

Nagarjuna also said he remembers asking her why she stayed in a relationship like that. He said, “I remember asking her, why are you doing this to yourself? You’re an accomplished woman.” However, he did not disclose the identity of the person she was dating at the time, although there were rumours linking her to a well-known Tamil actor.

Nayanthara also shared insights about her first relationship, describing it as being built on trust rather than love. “You just believe the other person is also in love with you. More than love, it’s trust. And you give it your all," she explained. Reflecting on the speculation surrounding her, she expressed her pain, saying, "It broke me when people assumed stories about it. Till today, no one has asked any of the boys what happened.” Since the release, many aspects of her life have unfolded that have now become a hot topic in the town.
