Deverakonda's 'Me!' Joke Sparks Mohanlal Fan Uproar

During a recent appearance on 'Koffee with Karan,' actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna found themselves at the center of online discussion following a playful quiz segment. Host Karan Johar asked the duo to identify South Indian actors by their popular industry titles. While Rashmika correctly identified Allu Arjun as the 'Icon Star' and Yash as the 'Rocking Star,' the situation took an unexpected turn when Deverakonda humorously declared himself the 'Complete Actor.'

Karan Johar then revealed the title belonged to Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, a clarification that seemed to surprise both Deverakonda and Mandanna, who questioned, "Mohanlal sir?" This exchange led to a mixed bag of reactions from social media users. Some fans of Mohanlal expressed disappointment, while others found Deverakonda's witty remark amusing.

Discussions also arose comparing this moment to Mandanna's previous comments on other actors. Some users defended Mandanna, stating that not knowing a specific nickname does not equate to not knowing the actor himself. The debate highlights the passionate fan bases within the South Indian film industry and the scrutiny actors face.

Meanwhile, Deverakonda and Mandanna's latest film, 'Ranabaali,' was released on February 27, 2026, just one day after Rajinikanth's 'Jailer 2.' The film, like the actors' recent appearance, is receiving mixed reviews from audiences, keeping them in the spotlight both professionally and personally.
