Vijay Deverakonda has confessed that 'NOTA' is a failure in Telugu.  The film is allegedly doing well in Tamil Nadu and he thanks the Tamil audience for lapping up the political thriller.  

"To everyone who goes to the cinema for me, and to all who hope others fail and celebrate it.  I will not make excuses, I take responsibility, I am proud of 'NOTA'.  It's a story I wanted to tell, a character explored and a performance delivered," VD starts saying.  "Tamil Nadu, the national media and all the audience here who loved it, your love has been received.  All the disappointment and criticism is taken seriously, it will be studied, the miscalculation on my side corrected, decisions evaluated, and work put in but the attitude will not change," he writes.  

The rising star is now demoralized and he wants his fans to know it and imbibe the fighting spirit from him.   "A success or failure is not what makes or breaks a Rowdy.  The day you stop, give in, give up, that's when you stop being one.  And being Rowdy isn't just about winning, it's fighting for that win, it's an attitude that burns inside us, so be proud rowdies, and keep fighting.  Gelisthe gelustham, leda nerchukuntam.  For those who are celebrating this, ippude pandaga cheskondi.  I will be back.  Rowdy for life!" the 'Taxiwala' and 'Dear Comrade' actor signs off.
