Vijay Varma On Marriage Plans: "My Mother Still Asks Me On Every Phone Call"

"I had my blinders on, and I was just looking at my career," said Vijay

Is Vijay Varma the most eligible bachelor in Bollywood now? Ever since he has admitted his relationship with Lust Stories 2 co-star Tamannaah, the question when he is getting married is on everyone's mind. The teaser of Vijay Varma's new series Kaalkoot also shows the character of Vijay faces the pressure of marriage from his mother. Taking a cue from that, Vijay Varma was asked in a recent interview whether he faces the pressure of marriage from family in real life. Vijay Varma said to DNA, "I am a Marwari. In our community, boys are considered of a marriage-able age at 16. So, all this began very early with me and also ended very early because I went past the marriageable age (laughs). On top of that, I had become an actor by then so there was that too."

However, Vijay Varma said during the course of the interview that he priorities career over everything else. "But I never gave much bhaav (attention) to it because I knew I had my career as a question mark in front of me. So, I never paid any attention to it. I had my blinders on, and I was just looking at my career."

Vijay is currently dating Tamannaah. On career front, he is also having a purple patch with back-to-back releases. Asked whether the queries of his marriage resumed in family, Vijay Varma said to DNA, "My mother still asks me. On every phone call she still asks me but I am just able to dodge it because I am doing well in my life."
