Vijay Varma admitted that he worries his relationship with actor Tamannaah Bhatia sometimes takes the spotlight away from his work, but he accepts there’s not much he can do about it.
Vijay Varma has been dating actor Tamannaah Bhatia for over a year and never planned to keep their relationship a secret. He believes it requires too much effort to hide a relationship, something he wasn’t willing to do. He also commented, “When I started seeing Tamannaah Bhatia, the paparazzi went crazy.
In an interview with Shubhankar Mishra on his YouTube channel, Vijay Varma opened up about his decision to be public about his relationship with Tamannaah Bhatia. When asked why they chose to go public, Vijay explained, “We both felt that if we enjoy each other’s company and care for each other, there’s no need to keep it hidden. Hiding a relationship is a lot of work—you can’t go out together, and your friends can’t take pictures. I’m not comfortable with those kinds of limitations. It wasn’t about seeking attention, but I didn’t want to suppress my feelings.”
While they’ve been open about their relationship, Vijay emphasized that they still keep many aspects private, which he values deeply. For example, he revealed that he has over 5,000 photos of them together, but they choose not to share them on social media, as those moments are special and meant to be kept close to their hearts.
In the interview, Vijay Varma was asked if his relationship with Tamannaah Bhatia sometimes overshadows his work. He responded, “In today’s society, people are overly interested in others’ personal lives. There’s a gossipy aunt in everyone who just wants to talk about relationships. It’s like a disease, and there’s nothing you can do about it. I can’t change that. However, I do receive appreciation for my work once it’s out, and I can’t deny that.”
About Their Relationship
Rumors about Vijay and Tamannaah dating started when they were seen celebrating New Year’s together in Goa, just months before the release of Lust Stories 2. The anthology was their first on-screen collaboration, directed by Sujoy Ghosh, and it’s believed they grew closer while working on the project. After months of speculation, Tamannaah confirmed their relationship in a June interview with Film Companion. Since then, the couple has been openly affectionate, often interacting on social media and making joint appearances at public events.
