Actor VTV Ganesh has doubled down on his gratitude to Vijay and Nelson Dilipkumar at a recent promotional event for his upcoming film, The Raja Saab, starring Prabhas and directed by Maruthi. The actor delivered a particular line in the 2022 film Beast, starring Vijay and directed by Nelson, which he said has helped increase his popularity in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Ganesh started his speech at the The Raja Saab pre-release event by thanking his Beast co-star and director. The actor said that he would not be where he is today if not for the "permission" that Vijay and Nelson gave him to say the particular dialogue in the 2022 film, which also features in its Telugu version.

The aforesaid line comes at a particular moment in Beast where Ganesh's character tells another character, "Who are you, man? Even when you are about to die, you are making such jokes." The actor's deadpan delivery makes the line funner than it might be on paper.

Coming back to The Raja Saab, VTV Ganesh said that he has acted in the film for 55 days. According to reports, the actor has also dubbed for his character in the film. Earlier, at a pre-release event for Kiss, Ganesh had said that he was not able to dub for his characters in Telugu films.
