While talking to ANI, Nagarjuna opened up about the ongoing summit in Mumbai, which is centred on the entertainment, media and digital innovation.

"I am very happy to attend, and it's a great initiative by the government of India that is for the film media industry. It's a grand global launch," said Nagarjuna.

Nagarjuna had a panel discussion with actor Anupam Kher and others on day two of the ongoing WAVES 2025.
