As a Twitter user has joked, "It was not a pre-release event. It was a get-together party hosted by Chiranjeevi for Vijayashanthi". We want to go a step further regarding the Sunday event of 'Sarileru Neekevvaru'. It was a self-indulgent session dedicated to flirting with the Lady Amitabh Bachchan. Chiru unleashed his inner romantic and made Vijayashanthi blush and blush and blush. Infected by his spirited flirtation, she too joined the party rather spontaneously.

It all began with the Megastar saying that he wants to pour his heart out. "After promising that you will be with me forever (a reference to the chartbuster 'Sunday ananura, Monday ananura..' from 'Gang Leader'), how come you have never been my heroine for the past 15 years?" Chiru asked Vijayashanthi. "Shall we act again?" Vijayashanthi asked Chiru. "Why not?" pat came his jaunty reply.

"During our T-Nagar days (in Chennai), we both were neighbours. We used to visit each other's homes for even small functions," Chiru said.

Chiru now couldn't hold himself back and doubled down on the flirtation. He vehemently paraphrased his 'Indra' punch line and said that Vijayashanthi still has "ade figaru, ade pogaru, ade sogasu".

The 'Sye Raa' actor's mood wanted more. "My heart is beating for you," Chiru said, taking the chemistry to a crescendo. Chiru has never been this chilled out on stage.
