March 30. The evening air in Hyderabad was warm.
Outside the gates of the Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology, the traffic had come to a complete standstill. The annual college fest was underway. Thousands of students from across the city had gathered on the campus. The noise of music and cheering echoed through the trees.
Rahul stood near the main entrance gate. He held a walkie-talkie in his hand. He wore a plain black shirt and trousers. As Siddanth Deva's personal assistant, his job tonight had nothing to do with cricket schedules. His job was crowd control.
Siddanth was currently the number one cricketer in the world. He was the captain of the national team. With the college demographic, his fame was absolute. If he walked into a college campus without preparation, a stampede was guaranteed.
Rahul did not rely on local police alone. He had brought in a private security detail from the NEXUS security wing. Forty men in plain black clothes stood near the barricades, forming a clear path from the main gate to the administrative building. Rahul had also coordinated with the college staff all afternoon. The professors and faculty members stood near the barricades, making sure the students stayed behind the ropes.
"The car is two minutes away," a voice crackled over Rahul's walkie-talkie.
"Open the gates. Secure the perimeter," Rahul ordered.
The heavy iron gates of the CBIT campus swung open.
A Royal Blue Rolls-Royce Phantom turned off the main road and glided onto the campus driveway. The car moved silently. It drove past the main entrance and stopped smoothly in front of the designated drop-off point near the administrative block.
The students waiting behind the barricades recognized the car. A low murmur spread through the crowd, quickly escalating into a loud, frantic cheer.
Rahul walked up to the rear door of the Phantom. He opened it.
Siddanth stepped out of the car. He wore a simple, dark blue denim shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and black jeans. He wore a pair of casual sneakers.
The moment his boots touched the ground, the campus erupted.
Thousands of students started screaming. The noise hit Siddanth like a physical wave. They shouted his name, waving their phones in the air to take pictures. The cameras' flashing lights lit up the evening.
Siddanth did not rush inside. He stood near the door of the car. He turned toward the crowd. He raised his right hand and waved. He smiled at the students pressing against the ropes.
The screaming grew louder. The chanting began.
"DE-VA! DE-VA! DE-VA!"
"DE-VA! DE-VA! DE-VA!"
"DE-VA! DE-VA! DE-VA!"
Rahul stepped closer. "We should move inside, Boss."
Siddanth nodded. He turned and walked toward the entrance of the building. The NEXUS security guards formed a tight circle around him. They walked with him, making sure no one broke through the line. The college staff held their arms out, keeping the excited students back.
Siddanth reached the glass doors of the entrance.
Anjali was waiting for him inside the lobby. She wore a bright yellow dress and a lanyard around her neck that identified her as an event organizer. She smiled widely as he walked through the doors.
"You actually caused a traffic jam on the main road, Bava," Anjali laughed, walking up to him.
"I didn't drive the car, Anju," Siddanth joked, giving her a quick hug. "How is the fest going?"
"It is going great. Even better now," Anjali said. She turned and gestured to a group of older men standing behind her. "Let me introduce you."
Anjali introduced him to the Principal of the college. Siddanth shook the man's hand respectfully. Anjali then introduced the Heads of the Departments and a few senior staff members. Siddanth greeted them all, exchanging polite words.
Finally, Anjali introduced the core student committee members. They wore the same lanyards as Anjali. They looked extremely nervous and excited to meet him. Siddanth shook their hands and asked them about their roles in the event.
"We arranged a room for you to rest before you go on stage," the Principal said. "Please, this way."
They walked down a quiet hallway. The security guards stood at the doors of the corridor, blocking anyone else from entering.
They entered a large, air-conditioned classroom. The desks had been pushed to the sides. A comfortable chair and a small table were placed in the center.
"Please have a seat, sir," the Principal said.
Siddanth sat down in the chair.
"Would you like something to drink? Coffee or a cold drink?" a staff member asked quickly.
"No, thank you. I am fine," Siddanth replied politely.
The Principal smiled. "We will leave you to prepare. The students will brief you on the schedule."
The Principal, the HODs, and the staff members left the room. The door closed.
Only Rahul, Anjali, and three student council members remained in the room.
One of the students, a boy wearing glasses, stepped forward. He held a clipboard. He looked at Siddanth.
"Hello, sir. My name is Chandu," the boy said.
"Hello, Chandu," Siddanth said.
Chandu looked at his clipboard. "Sir, here is the itinerary for the night. Once you are on the stage, we will start with a short speech by the Principal. After that, we have an awards distribution. We conducted a few inter-department sports events this week. Kabaddi, kho-kho, and football. We would like you to hand the trophies to the winning teams."
"I can do that," Siddanth agreed.
"After the awards, we request you to give a short speech to the students," Chandu continued. He hesitated for a second. He looked at Anjali, then back at Siddanth. "Sir, after the speech, is a Q&A session possible? Nothing serious. Just a fun interaction with the host on stage. If you are comfortable with it."
Siddanth looked at the nervous student. He nodded. "Yes. A Q&A session is fine."
Chandu let out a breath of relief. "Thank you, sir. We will get the stage ready. We will come back in ten minutes to take you."
The three student council members walked out of the room. The door clicked shut.
The room was quiet. Rahul stood near the door, checking his phone. Anjali walked over and sat on the edge of a desk near Siddanth.
"Thank you for coming, Bava," Anjali said quietly. "I know your schedule is packed. You probably wanted to stay home and rest."
Siddanth looked at her and smiled. "Don't think much about it, Anju. You are family now. This is one of the easiest favors you have ever asked me to do."
They continued talking about her college classes and her friends. A few minutes later, the door opened. A young worker walked into the room. He carried a small tray with a bottle of water and a glass. He wore a staff uniform.
The worker walked up to the table. He set the bottle and the glass down. His hands were shaking slightly.
"Thank you," Siddanth said.
The worker stood there. He looked at Siddanth. "Sir... I am a very big fan. I watch all your matches."
"Thank you," Siddanth smiled.
"Sir, can I ask for a photo?" the worker asked softly, looking down at his feet.
"Of course," Siddanth said. He stood up from his chair.
The worker reached into his pocket. He pulled out a phone. It was a Nexus Bolt 2. He looked around the room, not knowing who to hand the phone to.
Siddanth looked at his assistant. "Rahul. Take the photo."
Rahul walked over and took the phone from the worker. The worker stepped next to Siddanth. He stood stiffly, keeping a respectful distance. Siddanth reached out and put a hand on the worker's shoulder, pulling him a bit closer for the picture.
Rahul tapped the screen. "Done."
Rahul handed the phone back. The worker looked at the picture and smiled widely.
"Sir, can I take one selfie also?" the worker asked eagerly.
Siddanth laughed. "Yes. Take a selfie."
The worker held the phone up. Siddanth leaned in. The worker took the photo.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you so much!" the worker said, bowing his head repeatedly. He walked backward toward the door and left the room, clutching his phone.
Siddanth sat back down. He poured some water into the glass and took a sip. Anjali talked about the food stalls set up outside.
A few minutes later, the door opened again. Chandu and the student committee walked in.
"Sir, everything is set outside," Chandu said. "The host is ready to introduce you. We can walk to the stage now."
"Let's go," Siddanth said. He stood up and followed the students out of the room.
Rahul and the security guards formed a perimeter around him as they walked down the hallway toward the back entrance of the main stage. They could hear the crowd outside. The noise was a constant, loud hum.
They reached the steps behind the stage. The stage was massive. Bright lights pointed out toward the open college grounds. The ground was packed with thousands of students.
A young man holding a microphone stood in the center of the stage. He was the host for the night.
"Are you ready, CBIT?!" the host shouted into the microphone.
The crowd screamed back.
"I can't hear you! Are you ready?!" the host yelled again.
The roar from the crowd doubled in volume.
The host turned toward the side of the stage. He began the introduction.
"Today, we have a very special guest. We do not need to tell you his name, because the whole world knows his name. He is the current captain of the Indian cricket team!"
The students started cheering.
"He holds the record for the third most runs for Indian cricket internationally! He has the seventh highest runs in international cricket of all time! He is the all-time leading T20 international run-scorer!"
The cheers turned into shouts.
"He has the highest number of runs in the IPL! He has the highest number of wickets in the IPL! He holds the record for the most IPL centuries! He is the founder of NEXUS and the founder of the Nexus Sports Foundation!"
The host pointed his finger at the side of the stage.
"Everyone! Please welcome... Siddanth Deva, the DEVIL of Cricket!"
The heavy bass music started playing through the giant speakers.
Siddanth walked up the steps. He stepped out from behind the curtain and walked into the bright lights of the stage.
The crowd lost its mind.
Thousands of students jumped up and down. They threw their hands in the air. The noise was deafening. It was not a normal cheer. It was a roar.
"DEVA! DEVA! DEVA! DEVA!"
"DEVA! DEVA! DEVA! DEVA!"
"DEVA! DEVA! DEVA! DEVA!"
Siddanth walked to the center of the stage. He looked out at the massive sea of people. He smiled. He raised his hand and waved.
The crowd kept chanting. They did not stop. They chanted his name for five straight minutes. The host stood to the side, letting the moment play out. Siddanth stood on the stage, turning slightly to wave to the students standing far in the back near the food stalls.
Finally, Chandu and a few other council members walked onto the stage. They handed Siddanth a large bouquet of red roses. Siddanth took the flowers and thanked them.
The music slowly faded out. The host raised his hands, asking the crowd to settle down. The chanting slowly turned into loud applause and then quieted down.
The event progressed. A student came to the microphone and gave a short speech welcoming the guests. The Principal came forward next. He gave a speech about the importance of college events and sports.
"Now, I request Siddanth Deva to present the trophies to our sports champions," the Principal announced.
Siddanth walked to the front of the stage. A table holding several large trophies was placed nearby.
The host called out the names of the winning teams. The students walked onto the stage. Siddanth shook their hands and handed them the trophies. He gave the trophy to the winning Kabaddi team. He handed the trophy to the Kho-Kho champions. He gave the final cup to the winning football team. The students posed for photos with him on the stage, grinning widely.
Once the awards were distributed, the table was cleared away.
"We now request our chief guest to share a few words with the students," the host said.
The host handed the microphone to Siddanth.
Siddanth took the microphone. He stood in the center of the stage. He looked at the crowd.
"Hello, CBIT," Siddanth said. His voice echoed clearly over the speakers.
The crowd immediately started cheering again. They blew whistles and shouted.
Siddanth waited for them to quiet down. He smiled.
"Wow," Siddanth said. "Thank you. Thank you for the support you fans have given me throughout my career. I think this is the first time I am addressing this many students directly in a college."
He let out a short chuckle. "I should make sure I meet you guys from time to time. The energy here is incredible."
The students roared even louder, liking the compliment.
Siddanth paced slowly on the stage. He held the microphone close.
"I look at all of you standing here today, and I have to admit something," Siddanth told the crowd. "I envy your life. I envy your life as normal students."
The crowd went quiet, listening closely.
"I did not go to a normal degree college like everyone here," Siddanth explained. "Because of my cricket schedule, because of the tours and the training camps, I was doing distance education. I sat in hotel rooms and read textbooks. I did not sit in a classroom with friends."
He looked at the students standing near the front rows.
"I did not get the opportunity to bunk a class," Siddanth said. "I did not get to skip a lecture and go to the movies with my friends. I did not get to hang out at the malls. I missed the college fights, the canteen arguments, and the last-minute exam panic. I missed all that."
Siddanth paused. "So, I am not lying when I say I really missed the college life."
A loud, sympathetic "Awww" came from the female students in the front rows, while the boys cheered loudly for his honesty.
"Enjoy the life to the fullest right now," Siddanth advised them. "Because once you get out of the college gates, the real world starts. Have fun, make memories. But make sure you get all the knowledge required to survive the outside world."
He pointed a finger at the crowd.
"That knowledge is not just in your textbooks. It is everywhere. Build your social skills. Build your knowledge on your chosen subject. Build your communication skills. Because as much as friends help you in your life, your skills will also help you. Your skills will feed you."
He took a step back.
"Live your life to the fullest. Be good people. Thank you."
The crowd applauded loudly as Siddanth finished his speech.
While he was talking, the stage workers had brought out two tall chairs. They placed them in the center of the stage.
The host walked back to the center.
"Thank you for those inspiring words, sir," the host said. "Now, as requested, we have a short Q&A session. Please, take a seat."
Siddanth walked over and sat on one of the tall chairs. The host sat on the other chair facing him.
"We collected a few fun questions from the students," the host began. He looked at a cue card in his hand. He looked up at Siddanth.
"Sir, you are breaking records in cricket every game you play right now. Are you actually human?" the host asked with a straight face.
Siddanth laughed softly. "I am human."
The host leaned forward. "Can I touch you, sir? Just so we know you are actually human?"
Siddanth laughed again. He brought his right hand forward, offering his arm to the host.
The host reached out and tapped Siddanth's forearm. The host gasped dramatically. He turned to the crowd and spoke into his microphone.
"Guys. I think... I think he is human," the host declared.
The crowd laughed loudly at the joke.
The host looked back at his card. "Okay, next question. Do you watch Telugu movies?"
"Yes, I do," Siddanth said.
"What was the last movie you watched?" the host asked.
Siddanth thought for a second. "My last Telugu movie was Pelli Choopulu."
The crowd cheered loudly. The movie was a massive recent hit.
The host laughed. "That is a great choice. What is your favorite scene in that movie?"
Siddanth chuckled, leaning into the microphone. "I like the scene where the to-be father-in-law asks the hero's friend what he does for a living. And the friend says he is writing a book named 'Naa saavu nenu sastha, neeku enduku' (I will die my own death, why do you care?)—a youthful boy's life story."
The entire college ground burst into massive, howling laughter. It was one of the most famous and viral comedy dialogues of the year, delivered originally by actor Priyadarshi. Hearing the captain of the Indian cricket team quote it flawlessly, with perfect comedic timing, made the students go absolutely wild. They blew whistles and clapped their hands.
The host smiled, waiting for the laughter to settle. "A very famous line indeed. So, did you want to get married after watching that movie, sir?"
Siddanth smiled, leaning back in his chair. "No. I proposed to my wife four months before the movie even released."
The girls in the crowd screamed, clapping their hands for the answer.
The host nodded. "Okay. Next question. If you weren't a cricketer, and you weren't a billionaire CEO, what would you be?"
"A chef," Siddanth answered immediately. "I find cooking very peaceful."
"What is the best thing you can cook?" the host asked. Before Siddanth could open his mouth to answer, the host raised a hand and interrupted him. "Wait, let me guess. Pakistan?"
The entire college ground erupted into massive, howling laughter. The students blew whistles and slapped each other's shoulders. Siddanth laughed, shaking his head at the cricket joke.
"Well," Siddanth said into the microphone, waiting for the laughter to die down. "I can cook a good biryani."
"Chicken or mutton?" the host asked quickly.
"Both," Siddanth answered.
The host looked at his card. "Who is your favorite actor?"
"Prabhas," Siddanth said.
A loud, aggressive roar came from a large section of the crowd.
Siddanth looked at that section of the crowd and smiled. "I think there are a lot of Darling fans here."
The crowd cheered louder in agreement.
"You are known as a massive anime fan," the host noted. "What is the last anime you watched?"
"One Piece," Siddanth said. "It becomes a ritual for me. Every Sunday morning, I have to watch the new episode while eating my breakfast."
A group of anime fans near the front of the stage shouted and cheered, happy to hear their favorite show mentioned.
"Everyone saw the proposal anime video you made for your wife," the host said, his tone turning a bit more curious. "It was viral everywhere. I just want to ask on behalf of the Indian anime community. As you are a massive anime fan yourself, will you in the future produce an anime movie?"
Siddanth looked at the crowd. He shifted his posture slightly.
"You know," Siddanth began. "The Japanese make manga first. If they are a hit, they start animating them. In the West, they have comics, and they make cartoons and live-action movies out of them. They build their culture through their media."
He pointed a finger down.
"But we too have our own childhood stories," Siddanth stated clearly. "We have the Ramayana. Which was the first anime I ever watched, by the way. The Indo-Japanese version. And then there is the Mahabharata. If we want to, we can make the Mahabharata a five-hundred-episode anime easily. There are so many stories within it. There are a lot of mythological stories, like Kali Matha."
The crowd listened closely. The topic had shifted to something deeply cultural.
"It has been a long time since a full-fledged live-action or animated movie came out about these epics," Siddanth continued. "As a kid, my mom used to make me watch the Sr NTR Mahabharata and Ramayana movies on television. But little kids these days don't even know the story of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata properly. I think that is very important."
Siddanth looked at the host. "From these stories, there is a lot to learn. Forget about the gods for a minute. We can learn about morality. We can learn about kindness. We learn about the cost of arrogance, and the cost of blindness to not see what is happening right in front of you. And mainly, we learn about karma. These stories teach a lot of lessons to kids."
The host nodded slowly. "That is very true, sir. So... is there a movie in the future?"
Siddanth smiled. He leaned forward.
"What is the date today?" Siddanth asked the host.
"It is March 30th," the host replied.
"Wait till April 5th to know the good news," Siddanth said calmly.
The host's eyes widened. The crowd instantly started buzzing with excitement.
"Are you confirming that there is a movie you are planning?" the host asked eagerly, trying to get a scoop.
"I am not confirming anything," Siddanth said, keeping his smile steady. "Just wait for the news on April 5th. There will be a big reveal."
The entire crowd roared. The students clapped, the excitement of a new movie announcement spreading quickly through the grounds.
The host laughed. "We will definitely mark our calendars for April 5th. Sir, will you ever act in a movie?"
"Nope. Not in my plans," Siddanth answered immediately.
"Will there be a biopic of your life?" the host asked. "The MS Dhoni biopic was launched recently and was a huge hit."
"No," Siddanth shook his head. "I don't think I want a movie made about myself."
"If, hypothetically, there is a biopic of you," the host pressed for fun, "who would you want the actor to be?"
Siddanth thought for a second. "For my height and my build... there is only one actor I think can do it."
The crowd instantly started screaming a name. "PRABHAS! PRABHAS!"
Siddanth laughed, neither confirming nor denying, letting the crowd enjoy their guess.
"Now, a few cricket questions," the host said, moving to the next section. "Which player do you have the best connection with on the field?"
"Kohli and Dhoni bhai," Siddanth answered. "If I am batting with either of them, we just have a perfect understanding. If one of us calls for two runs, we just keep faith in the other person and run the two blindly. We don't even need to look."
"Which player is the laziest?" the host asked.
"Rohit Sharma," Siddanth said instantly, making the crowd laugh.
"Who is the funniest?"
"Kohli and Jadeja," Siddanth replied.
"What is the toughest team you have played against?"
"I think it was the Sri Lanka team from the 2009 to 2012 era," Siddanth said, remembering the fierce battles against Sangakkara and Malinga.
"Which format do you like to play the most?"
"Test cricket," Siddanth stated firmly.
The interview continued for another ten minutes. The host asked a few more lighthearted questions about his fast bowling, his diet, and his favorite places to travel. Siddanth answered them all with a calm, relaxed demeanor. The crowd cheered for every answer, hanging onto every word he said.
"Thank you so much for your time, sir," the host said. "We know you have a busy schedule. Thank you for making this fest unforgettable."
"Thank you for having me," Siddanth said. He stood up from his tall chair.
The host thanked him again through the microphone. The music started playing.
Siddanth walked to the front of the stage. He waved to the crowd one last time. The students chanted his name again as he turned and walked toward the side stairs.
Rahul and the NEXUS security team were waiting at the bottom of the stairs. As soon as Siddanth stepped off the stage, the guards formed a tight, protective circle around him.
They walked quickly through the backstage area.
Siddanth spotted Anjali standing near the exit doors, holding a clipboard.
Siddanth stopped. The security circle paused with him. He walked over to Anjali.
"Have fun tonight, Anju," Siddanth told her, patting her shoulder. "Don't stay up too late."
"I will! Thank you again, Bava!" Anjali smiled brightly.
"Goodbye," Siddanth said.
He turned and walked through the glass doors. He stepped outside into the warm night air. The Phantom was idling near the curb, the engine purring softly. Rahul opened the door. Siddanth climbed into the back seat.
The door closed. The security guards got into the escort vehicles. The convoy pulled away from the administrative building, driving slowly out of the campus gates, leaving the loud music and the cheering college students behind in the night.
---
The following morning, short clips and full recordings of Siddanth Deva's Q&A session at CBIT flooded the internet. Unsurprisingly, the interview went instantly viral. The combination of his rare public candor, relatable movie quotes, and massive hints about his upcoming projects set social media ablaze.
