Allu Arjun Doesn't Praise Unless He Really Likes Something: Allu Sirish

Hyderabad, April 23, 2021: Telugu actor Allu Sirish, who is the younger brother of superstar Allu Arjun, recently made his Hindi debut with a music video called, Vilayati Sharaab. Sung by Darshan Raval, and Neeti Mohan, the song has crossed 100 million views on Youtube and it is one of the biggest blockbuster songs of 2021. It featured Allu Sirish along with TV actress Heli Daruwala. ## Apart from his successful Hindi debut, Allu Sirish cherishes the moment when his elder brother, Allu Arjun praised and congratulated him for his first 100 million views song. Sirish cherishes his brother's compliment all the more because AA is known to be a man of few words. ## "His encouragement means the most to me because he is a man of few words. He is not too verbal about appreciation. His praises don't come a lot. So, even the smallest thing like an Instagram story coming from him is a big deal for me because I know for a fact that unless he really likes something, he doesn't praise it on social media", Sirish told IANS.## He added that for his movies Arjun never tweeted or said something about the first look or trailer unless he is very impressed. So it was nothing sort of a big compliment for him when the superstar praised him. ## Sirish also recalled when AA saw the "Vilayati Sharaab" video for the first time. "He was happy. He said that it's good that I am trying new things and that not many people would want to venture out through a music video. He appreciated the move of doing something. He also liked the video. ## ICYDK, a few days back, Ally Arjun had tweeted, "BIG Congratulations to @allusirish on hitting 100M Super Proud! & Congratulations to @darshanravaldz @neetimohan18 @heli_daruwala the entire team of #vilayatisharaab". ## BIGCongratulations to @allusirish onhitting your 1st 100M Super Proud ! & Congratulations to @darshanravaldz @neethimohan18 and the entire team of #VilayatiSharaab pic.twitter.com/Am9U2HpG0F— Allu Arjun (@alluarjun) April 16, 2021 ## Stay tuned...
