Vijay Deverakonda didn't buy iPhone 18 Pro, still uses iPhone Air like Kohli; he asks why take EMIs just to buy new Apple phones and impress others when older versions still work

Vijay Deverakonda has a question for anyone thinking about taking a loan to buy the newest iPhone like iPhone 18 Pro or iPhone 18 Pro Max. Why bother, he asks, if the one in your pocket is still doing its job. The actor was caught on camera using the same iPhone Air as the person interviewing him, and when asked about it, he didn't dodge the question. "I'm still using this one because it works fine," he said. "Why would I change it just because a new model has come out." What started as a small aside about his own phone soon turned into a sharper comment on how people in India spend money to look a certain way, often without stopping to ask if they can actually afford it.
