    He also revealed that he doesn’t go out on conventional dates but prefers becoming friends with a person first. He expressed that he only spends time with someone he has known for a long period.

    Vijay mentioned that his love isn’t “unconditional” because it comes with expectations. He explained, “I understand what it means to love and be loved, but my love has expectations, so it’s not unconditional. I feel that everything is often over-romanticized.”
