In South Indian cinema, it's customary for superstars like Rajinikanth, Vijay, Kamal Haasan, and Ajith to have a prefix before their names.
However, Vijay Deverakonda, known for his charisma and stellar performances, had refrained from adopting such a title, despite pressure from his producers. Recently, he humorously added 'The' to his name.
Vijay Deverakonda explained that he chose to add 'The' because all other titles he liked, such as Thala, Thalapathy, Thalaivar, and Superstar, were already taken.
He jokingly remarked that he is content with the name given by his parents and believes there's only one Vijay Deverakonda – and he is "The" Vijay Deverakonda. Thus, he decided to differentiate himself in this unique way.
