I hate 'lip-locks': Vijay Deverakonda

Vijay Deverakonda is furious with the media for terming a kiss as lip-lock. The term is not right to describe, he said when the media asked why he is using kiss scenes in each of his movies.
 
“The phrase lip-lock itself is a bad coin. Kiss is an emotion, a beautiful way of expressing love between two lovers. Like all the emotions I exhibit in the film, I do this in a similar fashion. Media should stop pinpointing this in a more focused way,” he said.
 
‘Dear Comrade’ is Vijay Deverakonda’s upcoming release that hits the screens this weekend. The film brings Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna together after their blockbuster ‘Geetha Govindam’ and they had indulged in kiss scenes in this film as well.
 
Vijay Deverakonda has popularized kiss scenes in Telugu films and he says it is high time, media and people move on discussion about these scenes.
