'Your Terrible Compliments…': Vijay Varma Roasts Influencer Dolly Singh Over Her 'Nation's Biggest Red Flag' Remark At IFFM- VIDEO

Indian actor Vijay Varma was awarded the Best Performance prize for his role in Matka King at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) 2026. The festival celebrated the actor's ability to portray complex and intense characters on-screen. At the event, Dolly Singh, an influencer-actor, congratulated Varma and playfully referred to him as "the nation's biggest red flag on-screen."

She explained that, despite occasional moments of praise, people typically view him as a "walking red flag" due to the intensity and often violent nature of his on-screen personas. Singh contrasted this with Varma's reputation off-screen, noting the significant difference between his real-life persona and his on-screen characters.

In response to Singh's remark, Varma, famous for his sharp humor, playfully retorted, "Just buy a piece of red cloth and keep it at home, and make as many flags as you want." This lighthearted comeback elicited laughter from the audience. Singh, though initially amused, immediately pointed out the insensitivity of the joke and responded with, "I will let that lame joke pass."

Undeterred by the exchange, Varma continued to playfully taunt Singh, saying, "Just as I let go of your terrible compliments aside." The exchange culminated with Singh graciously conceding, "Okay, I will let you go before you roast me any further," as both actors shared a laugh.
