Vijay Deverakonda rings up Samantha Ruth Prabhu at midnight to tell her a knock-knock joke, leaves Sam blushing

Samantha answers the call and enquires if everything’s okay. He explains that he’s calling because he’s been missing her and playfully requests to share a knock-knock joke. Despite the clock striking 1.30 am in Los Angeles and being locked out of her room, Samantha eventually agrees to listen to the joke.

The knock-knock exchange commences with Vijay’s “Knock knock,” to which Sam responds with “Who’s there?” Vijay’s reply of “Na” prompts Sam to ask “Na who?” with a smile. The ‘joke’ concludes as Vijay serenades a visibly blushing Samantha with the song “Na Roja Nuvve.”
