He wrote on Twitter, "I am honoured and have had the great privilege of being a part of this great enterprise in Telugu Cinema, Project K and to have had the huge honour of being in the same frame of the Idol, Prabhas. Thank you all and thank you Nagi Sir, for thinking of me. The humility, respect and concern Prabhas has given me has been so so touching & emotional. Not for me, but for all those involved in Project K, may your hard work touch new horizons. Love and prayers." (sic)
